VOW To Hire Heroes Act 2011

Music: Armed Forces Medley, United States Air Force Band

Today is a day to celebrate, for it appears capital hill laid aside partisanship to roll out comprehensive legislation to lower unemployment of America's veterans. I wholeheartedly support the President Obama signing into law the VOW to Hire Heroes Act. The VOW to Hire Heroes Act combines Chairman Miller's Veterans Opportunity to Work (VOW) Act, Chairman Murray's Hiring Heroes Act and President Obama's America Jobs Act/tax credits.

In, addition, I applaud President Obama for facets of the Job's Bill to address the 850,000 unemployed veterans; American Jobs Act, Returning Heroes Tax Credit and The Wounded Warriors Tax Credit. Also, the Veterans Job Bank and other initiatives have been developed to match veterans with jobs. This law will surely assist our veterans in transitioning into civilian employment. Thank you, Mr. President, President Barack Obama.
