Subtitle D of title I ( 29 U.S.C. 3221 et seq. ), as amended by this Act, is further amended by inserting after section 174, as added by the preceding section, the following: The Secretary is authorized to award grants, on a competitive basis, to States to create workforce longitudinal administrative databases and associated resources for the purpose of strengthening workforce development program quality, protecting privacy, and improving transparency. In awarding grants under this section, the Secretary shall give priority to States that— have the greatest need to improve their data infrastructure; will use non-Federal contributions to improve State data infrastructure and related resources; support co-enrollment in workforce related programs; participate and contribute data to the State’s linked longitudinal data system, including submitting data that when linked with elementary and secondary school and postsecondary data, provides the State the ability to create more data tools and analytics; and enable research and program improvement activities.
Funds made available under this section shall be used to supplement, and not supplant, other Federal, State, or local funds used for developing State data systems. The Secretary shall reserve not more than 10 percent of funds made available to carry out this section for each fiscal year for the provision of technical assistance to support the implementation of grants awarded under this section. Nothing in this section shall require the disaggregation of data when the number of individuals in a category is insufficient to yield statistically reliable information or when the results would reveal personally identifiable information about an individual, or would reveal such information when combined with other released information.
There are authorized to be appropriated to carry out this section— $40,000,000 for fiscal year 2023; $35,000,000 for fiscal year 2024; $30,000,000 for fiscal year 2025; $25,000,000 for fiscal year 2026; $20,000,000 for fiscal year 2027; and $15,000,000 for fiscal year 2028. In this section, the term State has the meaning given the term in section 3, except such term also includes each of the outlying areas (as defined in section 3). .
