Congresswoman Amata Highlights National Hire A Veteran Day
Washington, D.C. – Congresswoman Uifa’atali Aumua Amata is calling attention to National Hire A Veteran Day, which is Friday, July 25th, 2025, to show appreciation to Veterans and their ongoing and important role in their communities after their service.
“Veterans serve an integral part in our community in American Samoa, and throughout the country. Millions of men and women have dedicated themselves to learning discipline, strength, and teamwork from their career in the Armed Forces. Veterans continue to uplift our communities with their abundance of technical skills, seasoned work ethic, and leadership. Thank you to the many companies and federal agencies that take part in National Hire a Veteran Day, especially those that express to our Veterans in American Samoa and nationwide how much they mean to us.”
“The transition our Veterans face when leaving the Armed Forces is not an easy one. It is not only a change in careers but also a change in way of life. They deserve every opportunity to find their next professions, putting their hard-earned abilities and knowledge to work in their next field in support of their families and the next chapter of their success. Thank you to each of our Veterans.”
