SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department is announcing WIOA allotments
for PY 2025 for Youth Activities, Adult and Dislocated Worker
Activities, Wagner-Peyser Act PY 2025 allotments, and PY 2025 Workforce
Information Grant allotments. This notice provides information on the
amount of funds available during PY 2025 to states with an approved
WIOA Combined or Unified State Plan, and information regarding
allotments to the Outlying Areas.
On March 15, 2025, the Full-Year Continuing Appropriations and
Extensions Act, 2025, Public Law 119-4 was enacted (from this point
forward, referred to as ``the Act''). Section 1101 of the Act makes
appropriations to the Department of Labor ``under the authority and
conditions provided in'' the Departments of Labor, Health and Human
Services, and Education, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2024
(Division D of Pub. L. 118-47). Therefore, just like the FY 2024
appropriations Act, the 2025 Act makes PY 2025 Youth Activities funds
available for obligation on April 1, 2025, and funds the WIOA Adult and
Dislocated Worker programs in two separate appropriations. The first
appropriations for the Adult and Dislocated Worker programs become
available for obligation on July 1, 2025; this portion is commonly
referred to as ``base'' funds. The second appropriations for the Adult
and Dislocated Worker programs become available for obligation on
October 1, 2025; this portion is commonly referred to as ``advance''
funds because they are provided in the appropriations act passed during
the fiscal year immediately before the fiscal year when the funds are
available. For example, funds for PY 2025 that will be made available
on October 1, 2025, were appropriated during FY 2025, but not made
available until FY 2026, and are called the FY 2026 ``advance'' funds.
See Attachment A for details.
The Act applies to the provisions of the FY 2024 appropriations act
at Public Law 118-47, Division D, Title I, Sections 106(b) and 107,
which allow the Secretary of Labor (Secretary) to set aside up to 0.5
percent of each discretionary appropriation for activities related to
program integrity and 0.75 percent of most operating funds for
evaluations. Additionally, the Act applies section 102 of Public Law
118-47, Division D, Title I, which allows for up to 1 percent of
discretionary funds appropriated by the Act to be transferred between
programs, projects, or activities. For 2025, as authorized by the Act,
the Department has set aside $15,562,000 of the Training and Employment
Services (TES) and $7,291,000 of the State Unemployment Insurance and
Employment Service Operations (SUIESO) appropriations impacted in this
FRN for these activities. ETA reserved these funds from the WIOA Adult,
Youth, Dislocated Worker, Wagner-Peyser Act Employment Service, and
Workforce Information Grant program budgets. Any funds not utilized for
these reserve activities will be provided to the states. We also have
attached tables listing the PY 2025 allotments for programs under WIOA
Title I Youth Activities (Table A),
[[Page 21340]]
Adult and Dislocated Workers Employment and Training Activities (Tables
B and C, respectively), and the PY 2025 Wagner-Peyser Act allotments
(Table D). We also have attached the PY 2025 Workforce Information
Grant table (Table E) and the total WIOA Youth, Adult and Dislocated
Worker funding for Outlying Areas (Table F).
Youth Activities Allotments. The appropriated level for PY 2025 for
WIOA Youth Activities totals $948,130,000. After reducing the
appropriation by $10,230,000 for set asides authorized by the Act and
reserving $925,200 for Migrant and Seasonal Farmworker (MSFW) Youth,
$936,974,800 is available for Youth Activities. Table A includes a
breakdown of the Youth Activities program allotments for PY 2025 and
provides a comparison of these allotments to PY 2024 Youth Activities
allotments for all States and Outlying Areas. The WIOA Youth formula
has a section in WIOA for a reservation for Migrant and Seasonal
Farmworker (MSFW) Youth if the appropriation exceeds $925,000,000. Per
WIOA 127(a)(1), ETA reserved 4 percent ($925,200) of the excess amount
for MSFW Youth. For the Native American Youth program, the total amount
available is 1.5 percent of the total amount for Youth Activities
(after set asides authorized by the Act) after the MSFW Youth
reservation (in accordance with WIOA section 127). The total funding
available for the Outlying Areas was reserved at 0.25 percent of the
amount appropriated for Youth Activities (after set asides authorized
by the Act) after the amount reserved for MSFW Youth and Native
American Youth (in accordance with WIOA section 127(b)(1)(B)(i)). WIOA
includes the Republic of Palau as an outlying area, except during any
period for which the Secretary of Labor and the Secretary of Education
determine that a Compact of Free Association is in effect and contains
provisions for training and education assistance prohibiting the
assistance provided under WIOA (WIOA sec. 3(45)(B)). No such
determinations prohibiting assistance have been made.
Under WIA, the Secretary had discretion for determining the
methodology for distributing funds to all Outlying Areas. Under WIOA
the Secretary must award the funds through a competitive process.
However, for PY 2025, like PY 2024, funding to Outlying Areas (e.g.,
American Samoa, Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands,
the Republic of Palau, and the United States Virgin Islands) is not
subject to the competition requirement. For PY 2025, the Department
used the same methodology used since PY 2000 (i.e., we distribute funds
among the Outlying Areas by formula based on relative share of the
number of unemployed, a minimum of 90 percent of the prior year
allotment percentage, a $75,000 minimum, and a 130 percent stop gain of
the prior year share). For the relative share calculation in PY 2025,
the Department continued to use the data obtained from the 2020 Census
for American Samoa, Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana
Islands, and the United States Virgin Islands. For the Republic of
Palau, the Department used data from Palau's 2020 Census. The
Department will accept comments on this methodology. The Act
additionally allows Outlying Areas to submit a single application
according to the requirements established by the Secretary for a
consolidated grant for Adult, Youth, and Dislocated Worker funds.
Subject to approval of the grant application and other reporting
requirements of the Secretary, the Act allows Outlying Areas receiving
a consolidated grant to use those funds interchangeably between Adult,
Youth, and Dislocated Worker programs or activities. Table F includes
the total Youth, Adult and Dislocated Worker funding for Outlying
Areas.
After the Department calculated the amount for the MSFW Youth,
Outlying Areas and the Native American program, the amount available
for PY 2025 allotments to the states is $920,612,878. This total amount
is below the required $1 billion threshold specified in WIOA sec.
127(b)(1)(C)(iv)(IV); therefore, the Department did not apply the WIOA
additional minimum provisions. Instead, as required by WIOA, the
minimums of 90 percent of the prior year allotment percentage and 0.25
percent state minimum floor apply. WIOA also provides that no state may
receive an allotment that is more than 130 percent of the allotment
percentage for the state for the previous year. The three data factors
required by WIOA sec. 127(b)(1)(C)(ii) for the PY 2025 Youth Activities
state formula allotments are summarized slightly, as follows:
(1) The average number of unemployed individuals in Areas of
Substantial Unemployment (ASUs) for the 12-month period, July 2023-June
2024 in each state compared to the total number of unemployed
individuals in ASUs in all states;
(2) Number of excess unemployed individuals or excess unemployed
individuals in ASUs (depending on which is higher) averages for the
same 12-month period used for ASU unemployed data compared to the total
excess unemployed individuals or ASU excess number in all states; and
(3) Number of disadvantaged youth (age 16 to 21, excluding college
students not in the workforce and military) from special tabulations of
data from the American Community Survey (ACS), which the Department
obtained from the Census Bureau in each state compared to the total
number of disadvantaged youth in all states. ETA obtained updated data
for use in PY 2023, and the same data was used in PY 2025. The Census
Bureau collected the data used in the special tabulations for
disadvantaged youth between January 1, 2016-December 31, 2020.
For purposes of identifying ASUs for the Youth Activities allotment
formula, the Department continued to use the data made available by BLS
(as described in the Local Area Unemployment Statistics (LAUS)
Technical Memorandum No. S-24-16). For purposes of determining the
number of disadvantaged youth, the Department used the special
tabulations of ACS data available at: https://www.dol.gov/agencies/eta/budget/formula/disadvantagedyouthadults. See TEGL No. 01-23 for further
information.
Adult Employment and Training Activities Allotments. The total
appropriated funds for Adult Activities in PY 2025 is $885,649,000.
After reducing the appropriated amount by $2,298,000 for set asides
authorized by the Act, $883,351,000 remains for Adult Activities, of
which $881,142,622 is for states and $2,208,378 is for Outlying Areas.
Table B shows the PY 2025 Adult Employment and Training Activities
allotments and a state-by-state comparison of the PY 2025 allotments to
PY 2024 allotments.
In accordance with WIOA, the Department reserved the total
available for the Outlying Areas at 0.25 percent of the full amount
appropriated for Adult Activities (after set asides authorized by the
Act). As discussed in the Youth Activities section above, in PY 2025
the Department will distribute the Adult Activities funding for the
Outlying Areas, using the same principles, formula, and data as used
for outlying areas for Youth Activities. The Department will accept
comments on this methodology. After determining the amount for the
Outlying Areas, the Department used the statutory formula to distribute
the remaining amount available for allotments to the states. The
Department did not apply the WIOA minimum provisions for the PY 2025
allotments because the total amount available for the states was below
the $960 million threshold
[[Page 21341]]
required for Adult Activities in WIOA sec. 132(b)(1)(B)(iv)(IV).
Instead, as required by WIOA, the minimums of 90 percent of the prior
year allotment percentage and 0.25 percent state minimum floor apply.
WIOA also provides that no state may receive an allotment that is more
than 130 percent of the allotment percentage for the state for the
previous year. The three formula data factors for the Adult Activities
program are the same as those used for the Youth Activities formula,
except the Department used data for the number of disadvantaged adults
(age 22 to 72, excluding college students not in the workforce and
military).
Dislocated Worker Employment and Training Activities Allotments.
The amount appropriated for Dislocated Worker activities in PY 2025
totals $1,396,412,000. The total appropriation includes formula funds
for the states, while the National Reserve is used for National
Dislocated Worker Grants, technical assistance and training,
demonstration projects, Workforce Opportunity for Rural Communities,
Community College Grants, and the Outlying Areas' Dislocated Worker
allotments. After reducing the appropriated amount by $3,034,000 for
set asides authorized by the Act, a total of $1,393,378,000 remains
available for Dislocated Worker activities. The amount available for
Outlying Areas is $3,483,445, leaving $297,375,5555 for the National
Reserve and a total of $1,092,519,000 available for states. Table C
shows the PY 2025 Dislocated Worker activities allotments and a state-
by-state comparison of the PY 2025 allotments to PY 2024 allotments.
Similar to the Adult Activities program, the Department reserved
the total available for the Outlying Areas at 0.25 percent of the full
amount appropriated for Dislocated Worker Activities (after set asides
authorized by the Act). Similar to Youth and Adult funds, instead of
competition, in PY 2025 the Department will use the same pro rata share
as the areas received for the PY 2025 WIOA Adult Activities program to
distribute the Outlying Areas' Dislocated Worker funds, the same
methodology used in PY 2024. The Department will accept comments on
this methodology.
The three data factors required in WIOA sec. 132(b)(2)(B)(ii) for
the PY 2025 Dislocated Worker state formula allotments are, summarized
slightly, as follows:
(1) Relative number of unemployed individuals in each state,
compared to the total number of unemployed individuals in all states,
for the 12-month period, October 2023-September 2024;
(2) Relative number of excess unemployed individuals in each state,
compared to the total excess number of unemployed individuals in all
states, for the 12-month period, October 2023-September 2024; and
(3) Relative number of long-term unemployed individuals in each
state, compared to the total number of long-term unemployed individuals
in all states, for the 12-month period, October 2023-September 2024.
In PY 2025, under WIOA the Dislocated Worker formula uses minimum
and maximum provisions. No state may receive an allotment that is less
than 90 percent of the state's prior year allotment percentage (stop
loss) or more than 130 percent of the state's prior year allotment
percentage (stop gain).
Wagner-Peyser Act ES Allotments. The appropriated level for PY 2025
for ES grants totals $675,052,000. After reducing the appropriated
amount by $7,266,000 for set asides authorized by the Act, $667,786,000
is available for ES grants. After determining the funding for Guam and
the United States Virgin Islands, the Department calculated allotments
to states using the formula set forth at section 6 of the Wagner-Peyser
Act (29 U.S.C. 49e). The Department based PY 2025 formula allotments on
each state's share of calendar year 2024 monthly averages of the
civilian labor force (CLF) and unemployment. Section 6(b)(4) of the
Wagner-Peyser Act requires the Secretary to set aside up to three
percent of the total funds available for ES to ensure that each state
will have sufficient resources to maintain statewide ES activities. In
accordance with this provision, the Department included the three-
percent set-aside funds in this total allotment. The Department
distributed the set-aside funds in two steps to states that have
experienced a reduction in their relative share of the total resources
available this year from their relative share of the total resources
available the previous year. In Step 1, states that have a CLF below
one million and are also below the median CLF density were maintained
at 100 percent of their relative share of prior year resources. ETA
calculated the median CLF density based on CLF data provided by the BLS
for calendar year 2024. The Department distributed all remaining set-
aside funds on a pro-rata basis in Step 2 to all other states
experiencing reductions in relative share from the prior year but not
meeting the size and density criteria for Step 1. The distribution of
ES funds (Table D) includes $666,158,170 for states, as well as
$1,627,830 for Outlying Areas.
Section 7(a) of the Wagner-Peyser Act (49 U.S.C. 49f(a)) authorizes
states to use 90 percent of funds allotted to a state for labor
exchange services and other career services such as job search and
placement services to job seekers; appropriate recruitment services for
employers; program evaluations; developing and providing labor market
and occupational information; developing management information
systems; and administering the work test for unemployment insurance
claimants. Section 7(b) of the Wagner-Peyser Act states that 10 percent
of the total sums allotted to each state must be reserved for use by
the Governor to provide performance incentives for public ES offices
and programs, provide services for groups with special needs, and to
provide for the extra costs of exemplary models for delivering services
of the type described in section 7(a) and models for enhancing
professional development and career advancement opportunities of state
agency staff.
To provide services such as outreach to MSFWs, State Monitor
Advocate (SMA) responsibilities, and others, State Workforce Agencies,
(SWAs) must use Wagner-Peyser Act ES funding to provide employment
services to MSFWs, which are described at 20 CFR parts 651, 653, 654,
and 658.
Workforce Information Grants Allotments. Total PY 2025 funding for
Workforce Information Grants allotments to states is $32,000,000. After
reducing the total by $25,000 for set asides authorized by the Act,
$31,975,000 is available for Workforce Information Grants. Table E
contains the allotment figures for each state and Outlying Area. The
Department distributes the funds by administrative formula, with a
reserve of $176,740 for Guam and the United States Virgin Islands. Guam
and the United States Virgin Islands allotment amounts are partially
based on CLF data. The Department distributes the remaining funds to
the states with 40 percent distributed equally to all states and 60
percent distributed based on each state's share of CLF for the 12
months ending September 2024.
