LaTurner Announces Over 2,000 Available Jobs at Upcoming Career Fair

August 12, 2021

TOPEKA, K.S. – Today, Congressman Jake LaTurner announced that there will be more than 2,000 job openings available by more than 40 employers at the Career Fair taking place on August 17th in Agriculture Hall at Stormont Vail Events Center:

“The key to continuing a strong economic recovery is getting Kansans back to work. As I travel around Eastern Kansas, I am constantly hearing from small businesses about how difficult it has been to fill open positions as Kansans begin to get back on their feet after the pandemic,” said Congressman LaTurner. “I am hosting this career fair to connect business owners with eager Kansans ready to re-enter the workforce and I am proud to announce that we will have over 2,000 job openings available from over 40 Kansas employers and that number is still growing. I want to thank all the businesses that have signed up and I look forward to helping Kansans get back to work!”

Congressman LaTurner will be joined at the event by business and community leaders across the Topeka and Lawrence areas to promote a pro-business and pro-worker economic recovery. To learn more about the event or to RSVP please visit laturner.house.gov.
