    Exceptional Circumstances: Pursuant to 41 CFR 102-3.150(b), the

meeting is necessary to enable the American Workforce Policy Advisory 
Board to leverage the experience and knowledge of the Board Members to 
provide immediate workforce policy recommendations to the President's 
National Council for the American Worker to accelerate the re-
employment of American workers and the Nation's economic recovery.
