Congressman Lamborn Supports the Hire More Heroes Act

Statement

Date: Jan. 6, 2015
Location: Washington, DC
Issues: Veterans

Today, Congressman Doug Lamborn supported the Hire More Heroes Act, the first piece of legislation passed in the 114th Congress.

"It was an honor to cosponsor and support this important bill designed to incentivize businesses to hire more veterans. By allowing employers to not count veterans in the VA or TRICARE systems against Obamacare's employer mandate, businesses will have a lower tax burden if they employ veterans. Unemployment among our veterans is too high. The Hire More Heroes Act is an important first step in addressing the twin problems of onerous Obamacare mandates and veteran unemployment and I look forward to its passage in the Senate."
