Similar to the Emergency Employment Act. my legislation would stress the special need of Vietnam era veterans for jobs. But my bill would go further by providing a priority for such veterans for public service employmentPSEjobs. In addition. my bill requires that those on welfare. aerospace workers. older persons. the poor. persons of limited Englishspeaking ability. and migrants be given a fair share of the available jobs. It further requires that local PSE programs work with local welfare agencies to insure that welfare recipients have ready access to the jobs provided under this legislation. Public service employment is not the whole answer to the crisis in joblessness that the Nation faces.
