科罗拉多州法案给予煤炭工人优先雇用新的能源和基础设施工作。 Colorado bills give coal workers hiring preference in new energy and infrastructure jobs amid plant closures.

科罗拉多州立法者正在推进参议院第52号法案,以支持因关闭工厂而流离失所的煤炭工人,为建筑、铁路、公用事业和能源部门提供雇用优惠。 Colorado lawmakers are advancing Senate Bill 52 to support coal workers displaced by plant closures, offering hiring preferences in construction, rail, utilities, and energy sectors. 该法案要求雇主报告聘用数据,允许地方政府使用煤炭结算基金促进经济发展。 The bill requires employers to report hiring data and allows local governments to use coal settlement funds for economic development. 其目的是缓解西斯隆巴农村地区工人的过渡,因为预计到2028年,由于清洁能源任务和工厂关闭,将有近1,900个就业机会丧失。 It aims to ease the transition for workers in rural Western Slope communities as nearly 1,900 jobs are expected to be lost by 2028 due to clean energy mandates and plant closures. 该措施并不要求雇用,而是鼓励将合格的煤炭工人纳入新的基础设施项目,包括计划中的通勤铁路。 The measure does not mandate hiring but encourages inclusion of qualified coal workers in new infrastructure projects, including a planned commuter rail line.
