Mike Michaud: “At this time, I would like to yield 4 minutes to the gentlelady from Ohio (Ms. Kaptur).”

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

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.

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

We are addressing the skill gap between veterans and employers who are seeking employees with industry-recognized credentials.
