It’s still #MilitaryAppreciationMonth, so here’s what we’re working on to help servicememebrs and their families [point down] We’re calling on Congress to improve quality of life in the military. The House Armed Services Committee’s Quality of Life Panel, led by For Country Caucus Members Rep. Don Bacon and Rep. Chrissy Houlahan, recently released their legislative recommendations for the FY25 #NDAA, which HASC Chairman Mike Rogers has stated will serve as the base of the annual defense bill. Included in their recommendations was a 15% pay increase for junior enlisted troops and a plan to address dilapidated military housing. We strongly urge Congress to accept these recommendations and include them in the #NDAA as we approach the first round of markups. Our troops make sacrifices every day to protect us, let’s do the right thing and take care of them. You can read the Quality of Life Panel’s full report below. https://lnkd.in/gbU8HAVP

A transitioning veteran asked me the commonality of veterans in corporate America that strayed from the principles expected of military personnel. Without exception, money was the driving force. The Benjamins! The ones I worked with/for/and over, that were a POS left the military in a poor financial situation, purchased too much house, too much car(s) and were willing to do everything within their power to get promoted, or remain employed, in order to meet their financial obligations. The exception was those that were perhaps in a solid financial situation, but accumulating more money was a life goal. Maybe the real answer is they were all POS's while in the military. Transitioning veterans, get your financial house in order before you leave the military. No more housing allowance, tax free combat zone pay, jump pay, etc. Are you sure you need a newer vehicle, a big house, a boat? Why put that added financial burden/pressure on yourself and your family? #veterans #vetarnshelpingveterans #marines
