Articles from RAISE US

Gina Raimondo, the 40th U.S. Secretary of Commerce and 75th Governor of Rhode Island, and Eric Holcomb, the 51st Governor of Indiana, today launched RAISE US, a nonpartisan national organization that will partner with governors, employers, workers, and training organizations to help the American workforce make a successful transition to an AI economy. RAISE US will design and pilot new corporate incentives to retrain and redeploy workers, new approaches to support people through job transitions, and new training models tied to changing employer demand. The organization will leverage private and philanthropic capital to scale what’s most effective and measure success by whether workers land and keep good jobs. RAISE US launches with more than two dozen of America’s largest companies and philanthropies behind it and with initial state partnerships in Arkansas, Connecticut, Maryland, and Utah.
