15 U.S.C. § 3114 — Congressional statement of purpose

The Congress recognizes that general economic policies alone have been unable to achieve the goals set forth in this chapter related to full employment, production, and real income, balanced growth, adequate growth in productivity, proper attention to national priorities, achievement of an improved trade balance through increased exports and improvement in the international competitiveness of agriculture, business, and industry, and achievement of reasonable price stability as provided for in [section 1022b(b) of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title15-section1022b/b&num=0&edition=prelim). It is, therefore, the purpose of this subchapter to require the President to initiate, as the President deems appropriate, with recommendations to the Congress where necessary, supplementary programs and policies to the extent that the President finds such action necessary to help achieve these goals, including the goals and timetable for the reduction of unemployment. Insofar as feasible without undue delay, any policies and programs so recommended shall be included in the Economic Report.

15 U.S.C. § 3131 — Youth employment policies and programs

**(a) Congressional findings** The Congress finds and declares— (1) That 11 So in original. Probably should not be capitalized. serious unemployment and economic disadvantage of a unique nature exist among youths even under generally favorable economic conditions; (2) that this group constitutes a substantial portion of the Nation’s unemployment, and that this significantly contributes to crime, alcoholism and drug abuse, and other social and economic problems; and (3) that many youths have special employment needs and problems which, if not promptly addressed, will substantially contribute to more severe unemployment problems in the long run. **(b) Improvement and expansion** To the extent deemed necessary in fulfillment of the purposes of this chapter, the President shall improve and expand existing youth employment programs, recommending legislation where required. In formulating any such program, the President shall— (1) include provisions designed to fully coordinate youth employment activities with other employment and training programs; (2) develop a smoother transition from school to work; (3) prepare disadvantaged and other youths with employability handicaps for regular self-sustaining employment; (4) develop realistic methods for combining training with work; and (5) develop provisions designed to attract structurally unemployed youth into productive full-time employment through incentives to private and independent sector businesses; 22 So in original.

**(a) Policies, procedures and recommendations** Further to promote achievement of full employment under this chapter and the Employment Act of 1946 [[15 U.S.C. 1021](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title15-section1021&num=0&edition=prelim) et seq.], the President, through the Secretary of Labor, shall develop policies and procedures and, as necessary, recommend programs for providing employment opportunities to individuals aged 16 and over in the civilian labor force who are able, willing, and seeking to work but who, despite serious efforts to obtain employment, remain unemployed. **(b) Utilization of authority under other laws** In meeting the responsibilities under subsection (a), the Secretary of Labor shall, as appropriate, fully utilize the authority provided under title I of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act [[29 U.S.C. 3111](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title29-section3111&num=0&edition=prelim) et seq.] and other relevant provisions of law to— (1) assure the availability of counseling, training, and other support activities necessary to prepare persons willing and seeking work for employment; (2) refer persons able, willing, and seeking to work to job opportunities in the private and public sectors through the existing public employment placement facilities and through the United States Employment Service of the Department of Labor, including job opportunities in any positions created under programs established pursuant to sections 3112, 3114, and 3115 of this title; and (3) encourage flexi-time and part-time jobs for persons who are able, willing, and seeking employment but who are unable to work a standard workweek. **(c) Establishment of project reservoirs; restrictions and requirem

15 U.S.C. § 3133 — Capital formation

**(a) Congressional findings** The Congress finds that— (1) promotion of full employment and balanced growth is in itself a principal avenue to high and sustained rates of capital formation; (2) high rates of capital formation are necessary to ensure adequate rates of capacity expansion and productivity growth, compliance with governmental health, safety and environmental standards, and the replacement of obsolete production equipment; (3) the ability of our economy to compete successfully in international markets, the development of new technology, improved working conditions, expanding job opportunities, and an increasing standard of living depend on the availability of adequate capital at reasonable cost to commerce and industry; (4) an important goal of national policy shall be to remove obstacles to the free flow of resources into new investment, particularly those obstacles that hinder the creation and growth of smaller businesses because general national programs and policies to aid and stimulate private enterprise are not sufficient to deal with the special problems and needs of smaller businesses; and (5) while private business firms are, and should continue to be, the major source of investment, the investment activities of the Federal, State, and local governments play an important role in affecting the level of output, employment, and productivity and in achieving other national purposes. **(b) Investment Policy Report; recommendations in President’s Budget; referral to Joint Economic Committee** The Economic Report shall include an Investment Policy Report which shall, as appropriate, (1) review and assess existing Federal Government programs and policies which affect business investment decisions, including, but not limited to, the relevant aspects o

Page 1987 TITLE 15—COMMERCE AND TRADE § 3103 by other measures designed to serve these ends. (3) Attainment of these objectives should be facilitated by setting explicit short-term and medium-term economic goals, and by im- proved coordination among the President, the Congress, and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. (4) Increasing job opportunities and full em- ployment would greatly contribute to the elimination of discrimination based upon sex, age, race, color, religion, national origin, handicap, or other improper factors. (c) The Congress further finds that an effective policy to promote full employment and produc- tion, increased real income, balanced growth, a balanced Federal budget, adequate productivity growth, proper attention to national priorities, achievement of an improved trade balance, and reasonable price stability should (1) be based on the development of explicit economic goals and policies involving the President, the Congress, and the Board of Governors of the Federal Re- serve System, with maximum reliance on the re- sources and ingenuity of the private sector of the economy, (2) include programs specifically designed to reduce high unemployment due to recessions, and to reduce structural unemploy- ment within regional areas and among par- ticular labor force groups, and (3) give proper at- tention to the role of increased exports and im- provement in the international competitiveness of agriculture, business, and industry in pro- viding productive employment opportunities and achieving an improved trade balance.
