PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro was in Philadelphia Wednesday morning touting a new executive order that he claims will create up to 10,000 jobs. The governor visited Steamfitters Local Union 420 in Northeast Philadelphia to announce his Commonwealth Workforce Transformation Program. The plan calls to invest up to $400 million over the next five years in workforce training and development. The commonwealth is looking to specifically fund apprenticeships like the ones here at Steamfitters 420.
