Mike Michaud: “When we assumed the Soldier, we did not lay aside the Citizen.”

If you look at the chart comparing women veterans to female non-veterans, you can see in that chart that actually the female veterans' number is lower than the female non-veterans.

USERRA prohibits discrimination in employment based on an individual's prior service in the uniformed services, current service in the uniformed services, or intent to join the uniformed services.

So we have a situation in our country where 22 veterans commit suicide everyday.

I greatly appreciate that we are all partners in promoting opportunities for veterans and in protecting their rights.
