On August 5, 2025, with the Trump administration attempting to eliminate Job Corps, one of the nation’s largest and most effective workforce training programs, U.S. Senator Chuck Schumer stood with Iroquois Job Corps students and staff at Brunner International’s manufacturing facility, a vital employer in Orleans County, to demand that the Trump administration halt its cruel, potentially illegal attempts to decimate Job Corps. Schumer explained the Trump administration is not only targeting Job Corps centers for closure, but in his recent budget request Trump said he wants to completely eliminate funding for the program.
