WASHINGTON – President Obama commemorated Veterans Day Weekend by thanking the brave men and women who have worn this country’s uniform. Mr. Obama said he is proud of their service and will do everything possible to ensure America always has their back and always honors their sacrifice.
“If you fight for your country overseas, you should never have to fight for a job when you come home. I’ve made sure the federal government leads by example, and since I took office, we’ve hired about 300,000 veterans to keep serving their country. Our new transition assistance program is helping veterans and their spouses find that new job and plan their career. And I’m going to keep calling on Congress to do the right thing and pass the Veterans Jobs Corps. Put our veterans to work rebuilding America.”
