smucker: thank you. dubois, i am interested in your comments in regards to extending the pell grants -- for workforce programs. the requirements are, the programs must be at least 600 hours in length and need to be taught over a span of 50 weeks. you mentioned fast-forward. how many weeks do most of them last? mr. dubois: thank you for the question. typically six weeks. some longer. some less. we have completion rates north of 90%. we have job placement rates that are similar. looke are seeing, on a back we can see earnings increasing anywhere from 20%-50%. 20% of the students we put through these programs in the last three years, before show they came to us they were on public assistance. now they are not. these are short-term opportunities that lead to jobs that employers are screaming about. think about welding, pharmacy technicians, cdl's. they require certifications and licenses. great results. what would you recommend as we consider changes to the policy? how many hours do you recommend that we set

smucker. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman is recognized. mr. smucker: thank you, madam chair. thank you, mr. speaker. when i was a teenager at 14 years old, one of my first jobs was serving as a dishwasher at smoke town family restaurant. i had no previous work experience, but the owner took a chance on me. certainly didn't receive a great wage, but it was a starting point, and the lessons that i learned in that job were lessons that i used during my entire career. went on after high school to buy a small construction company, operated it for 25 years, creating family-sustaining jobs for hundreds of individuals. today, my 16-year-old son serves food in a skilled nursing center after school at a wage of $9 an hour. he's very thrilled with that. again, learning the skills, the people skills needed, learning to show up to work on time. one of the best indicators of success in a career is whether or not you had a job during high school. this bill unfortunately would rob many of the opportunity to hold that first job. c.b.o. specifically said 3.7 million jobs lost as a result of th
