Amata Highlights National Hire a Veteran Day
Washington, D.C. — Congresswoman Uifa’atali Amata is highlighting National Hire a Veteran Day 2022.
“Our nation benefits from millions of Veterans who learned teamwork, strength, discipline, leadership, work ethic, and often technical skills in the Armed Forces, and have much to offer employers and their communities,” said Aumua Amata. “I appreciate the federal agencies that prioritize National Hire A Veteran Day and many companies in the U.S. that participate, and especially all that our local Veterans in American Samoa mean to us. Our Veterans experience a big transition when they leave the Armed Forces, and deserve every consideration and opportunity to prove themselves, find great second careers, and put their knowledge to work in new ways.”
