York Co. woman's business helps military spouses find employment; New bill aims to get more hired
/YORK COUNTY, Va. - — A bill re-introduced in Congress would incentivize employers to hire military spouses.
The Military Spouse Hiring Act would expand an existing program and give employers a tax credit if they hire military spouses.
"The frequency of moves often means the employers will look at them and say, 'Wow, you're they type of person I want, but you're likely to move soon, so I'll hire someone else,'" said Sen. Tim Kaine (D-Virginia), one of the bill's sponsors.
