Here's a pop quiz for you. Right around 7 percent of Americans have served in the military at some point, but what percentage of the federal workforce is made up of veterans?
A. 7 percent
B. 16 percent
C. 25 percent
D. 31 percent
B. 16 percent
C. 25 percent
D. 31 percent
Take your time... think about it... Ok, ready? The correct answer is 31 percent of the federal workforce is made up of veterans. And what that means is that Donald Trump's hiring and pay freeze hits veterans harder than almost any other group. Trump's order also hurts unemployed veterans who would have had a great shot at getting new Federal jobs, thanks to President Obama's Veterans Employment Initiative.
Donald Trump bragged over, and over, and over, and over again that he was going to take care of veterans. Now his first action hurts them more than any other group. It's time to make our voices heard:
Sign our petition calling on Donald Trump to reverse his federal hiring and pay freeze or to detail a specific plan immediately that will help put veterans across the country to work.
Scarier still, there is no guidance yet on how this federal freeze is going to impact employment and pay at the VA. But here's the truth, if we are going to make a difference in the Trump Administration, we have to set the tone and make our voices heard early. That's why adding your name is so important.
All our best,
