Governors stress workforce issues
Leaders of Iowa,
Nebraska, SD gather
in South Sioux City
NICK HYTREK
S
Business Journal staff writer
OUTH SIOUX CITY – The tri-
state region’s governors touted
programs and initiatives their
respective states have launched
in an effort to train, attract and
develop skilled labor while ac-
knowledging that more can be done to help
businesses find qualified workers to fill va-
cant jobs.
Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds, Nebraska Gov.
Pete Ricketts and South Dakota Gov. Kristi
Noem all said that workforce development
is a top issue in the three states, which all
have unemployment rates among the low-
est in the nation and have more available
jobs than unemployed workers.
“We want to partner with you. We are
taking a look at all the programs we have in
place. We are re-evaluating them,” Reyn-
olds told Siouxland business leaders during
the 17th Tri-State Governors’ Conference
at the South Sioux City Marriott Riverfront
on July 12.

Governors’ Conference in South Sioux City on July 12. of regional importance during the event,
coordinated by the Siouxland Chamber of
Commerce. This year, as in years past, the
main topic was jobs and how companies
can find workers to fill them.
Mike Wells, president and CEO of Wells
Enterprises in Le Mars, Iowa, and chairman
of The Siouxland Initiative, told the three
Republican governors that the ebbing CO-
VID-19 pandemic is not entirely to blame
for the difficulties companies are having
finding workers.
“This isn’t a pandemic problem, this is a
systemic problem, and we’re going to need
your help,” Wells said.
Wells said the aging baby boomer popu-
lation has begun to retire in large numbers,
a lower percentage of working-age people
are participating in the workforce, and
fewer children are being born to replace
retiring workers.
“We have too few working-age people for
