SENATE PASSES VETERANS JOBS BILL

SENATE PASSES VETERANS JOBS BILL

While the house and senate are widely divided on most issues, this bill was approved 95 to 0. So, it appears at least Washington is in agreement on something!

The veterans jobs bill would extend tax credits to employers. Businesses would receive $9,000 in tax credits for hiring a disabled veteran who has been out of work for six months, $5,600 for hiring any veteran who has been out of work for six months, and $2,400 for hiring any veteran who has been out of work for one month.

When it seems Americans have not sacrificed while our military are losing lives and suffering injuries this does show support.  On this day we  honor our veterans this was the right thing to do!
