bureau of labor and statistics, occupations in stem fields are projected to grow over nine million jobs by 2022. research shows that many military veterans already have skills that align with stem careers, particularly in the area of information technology. however, it also shows that veterans face many barriers as they re-enter the workforce, including a lack of formal certified stem education, career guidance and the difficult task of transferring military credits to civilian college credits. our nation's veterans deserve every opportunity to transition to a rewarding and successful civilian life. this bill will help our service members to continue to serve our nation in new ways by fulfilling 21st century jobs and keeping america on the cutting edge of innovation. i thank congressman lamb for -- a fellow member of the science ommittee, and a marine corps teran, for co-authoring this bill. last year the house passed this legislation by an overwhelming margin but we did not make it across the finish line in the senate. this year we have a bipartisan companion bill in the senate introde

there was recent data out from the bureau of labor statistics lie highlighted in the recent "wall street journal" article that said despite these factors that income to employees in the form of pay and benefits continues to decrease. it's down to 52.7% of our gross domestic income. it was as high as 59% in the 1970's. and 57% in 2001. by the same token business income, profits to businesses, they are the biggest corporations or small businesses, have gone from 12% to up to 20%. can you give me your thoughts on why we're seeing more income going to the hands of owners in this country and less in the hands of workers? chairman powell: yes. that's the labor share of income is what you are talking about. really, if you look back through history it zigs and zags, but generally zigged and zagged at a higher level. around the year 2000 labor share went down sharply for about 10 years. and then broadly speaking has been about flat since then. it goes up and goes down. but it's basically flat. the question is why? it's a really good question. and there are a lot of different answers. it may -- ho

the highest number of open positions in that sector since the bureau of labor statistics began keeping track. let me state this more simply. as i said we are out of workers. we must act to expand our labor force including construction workers. one striking trend is that workers in the sector tend to be older. and less than 10 percent of construction workers are under 25. meanwhile baby boomers are migrating out and fewer workers of the younger generation are backfilling these jobs. in part because of the stigma occasionally attached to trade jobs. the chamber has been saying for many years, a four year degree is not the only pathway to success. construction jobs, many of which don't require a degree or a diploma to start surpass the median wage of all industries. greater emphasis on technical education and work payers learning such as apprenticeships and help more young people pursue promising construction jobs and help address worker shortages. of course an immigration bill that we would really like to see this year is another important factor. study show that immigrants make up more
