Throughout his tenure in the U.S. Senate, Senator Casey has advocated for the importance of project, program and portfolio management to improve the federal government’s ability to effectively manage its projects and programs. This includes co-sponsoring the Program Management Improvement and Accountability Act and supporting PMI’s successful effort to get the U.S. Department of Labor to add project management specialists to its Standard Occupation Classification system.
