S. 531, called the "American Apprenticeship Act," wants to help people learn job skills by giving some money to states to run special training programs, especially for those who might find it hard to get a job. The bill makes sure the government covers part of the cost, and states have to work with schools and companies to help more people get ready for work.

The American Apprenticeship Act is like a money helper that gives states extra money from the government to help pay for special job training programs. This helps schools and businesses teach people skills for jobs that lots of people are looking to do.
