Restyle your wardrobe, support EmBe programs
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO) — If you're looking to refresh your closet, a Sioux Falls women's attire sale can help.
The Dress for Success winter sale returns to EmBe's downtown Sioux Falls location this Friday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. From 1 to 3 on Saturday, fill a large bag for $35.
Blazers, dresses, jewelry, tops and more are some of the women's attire shoppers can look forward to.
'It's fun to see what people donate. And you find a lot of cute things,' shopper and donator Katie Kean said.
Items are donated to the sale, and most are less than ten dollars. Kean knows the impact that it can have.
'Way back when I first started working, you had to have business attire, which was suits, no slacks. That has just stuck with me,' Kean said. 'As I've retired, I've got good business wear clothes to donate to friends that could use it. But when it comes to that, it's like, it's time to donate to somebody else who might be in the same situation I was.'

Proceeds support EmBe's various programs that help people with job coaching, resumes and interviews, all at no cost.
'We offer a program called Career Network. They meet the second Tuesday of every month. They talk about a wide variety of different things in the workforce, whether that's workforce development tools or even just more civic responsibilities,' EmBe Women's Program Coordinator Kara Bultena said.
Those who have volunteered with EmBe in the past got a first-look at the sale on Thursday.

Senate Republican calls July 4 ‘false deadline' for megabill
Sen. John Curtis (R-Utah), a moderate Republican, called July 4 a 'false deadline' for Republicans to pass their megabill and said it's more important for the Senate to get it done 'right' than fast. In an interview at Politico's Energy Summit in Washington on Tuesday, Curtis said he's confident the bill would eventually pass. But, he added, 'I can't tell you what it's going to look like or when it's going to pass.' He signaled a lightly less optimistic note on whether it would pass by the GOP's self-imposed July 4 deadline. 'Well, let me just say, I think a lot of us would be surprised if it passed by July 4,' Curtis said. 'I think that's a false deadline,' he added. 'I don't think that we need to put a specific deadline on it. Let's get it right.' Other GOP senators have also publicly and privately voiced doubts about meeting the July 4 deadline that Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) is shooting for as Senate Republicans remain divided on a number of hot-button issues. On Monday, Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) said he thinks the deadline is still realistic. 'We certainly hope, I believe, we can still meet that,' Johnson said. 'It's up to the Senate, the bill's in the Senate's hands now. But I spoke with Leader Thune as recently as last night, he's feeling very optimistic.' At Tuesday's summit, Curtis said he thinks the House-passed version unfairly rolls back some of the energy tax credits in Biden-era Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). He said some of those tax credits 'have run their life cycle' but it's important to 'be thoughtful in how we phase them out.' 'Banks, investors have invested billions of dollars based on the rules of the road, and you have employees who have set careers based on these things,' Curtis said. 'Let's not destroy careers and things like that,' he added. 'Let's give people a chance to adjust. So in the case of those that it's time to phase them out, I think how we phase them out matters.'
