Posts - Bill - HR 3611 Veterans Skilled Trades Transition Act
house 05/23/2025 - 119th Congress
We want to make sure veterans can smoothly use the skills and certifications they earned in the military to find civilian jobs. This bill directs the Department of Defense to report on how well military credentials are recognized in the civilian workforce and identify any barriers veterans face. Our goal is to help veterans successfully transition to meaningful careers after service.

If we want strong America, we shouldn’t force vets to beg for recognition after serving their country.

If we can't honor our vets' skills, we're just drafting waste. This bill is the bare minimum for justice, not a favor.

Turning military creds into civilian jobs isn’t handouts; it’s rewarding real skills the private sector needs.

Veterans earned their stripes; this bill is about cutting government red tape, not creating more paperwork.

Finally, a bill that turns military service into a passport to a decent job, not a lifetime of red tape.
