Transformation to Competitive Integrated Employment Act
This bill transitions individuals with disabilities from segregated employment under special certificates (which allow subminimum wages) to competitive integrated employment with fair wages. It creates grant programs for states and employers to facilitate this transition, requiring employers to pay at least minimum wage (increasing over time) and providing necessary supports. The bill phases out special certificates entirely within 4 years, while ensuring individuals with disabilities receive ongoing support during the transition. It also establishes evaluation requirements to track progress and ensure compliance with the new standards.
