SEATTLE (AP) -- Washington state is receiving $13.5 million from the U.S. Department of labor to train people for green jobs.
Senators Maria Cantwell and Patty Murray said Wednesday that three projects will receive money as part of $100 million in grants that the Labor Department is distributing nationwide.
The Washington money includes $3.9 million for an energy training partnership in King, Snohomish, Pierce, Kitsap and Clallam counties. A training program for health care jobs in King County and counties in four other states will get $4.6 million. And $5 million is going for renewable energy technology training for Washington and Oregon. Clark, Cowlitz and Wahkiakum counties are part of that program in Washington state.
