The Wisconsin Departments of Workforce Development and Transportation are awarding more than five-million dollars in “Commute to Careers” funding. Governor Scott Walker announced the 29 grants Friday aimed at making affordable transit available for more workers in the state. Walker said in a statement, “These grants will give thousands of Wisconsin workers improved access to meaningful jobs or training opportunities that they need to enter the workforce.” The program will be requesting an additional eight-million dollars in funding in the next two-year state budget. State officials expect private funding to replace public dollars in the future.
