Crawford said many who retired from the military after 2001 return to an economy where they have higher rates of unemployment than veterans who retired earlier and non-veteran peers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Crawford&#8217;s measure would allow private companies to have voluntary hiring preferences for veterans and spouses of disabled veterans. It also goes with a measure passed last year that gives veterans a preference in the hiring process for state and government jobs. At least 12 states, including Iowa, have adopted similar programs, she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Other bills announced Wednesday include one by Sen. Adam Morfeld of Lincoln to more effectively transfer military training to civilian experience and another to subsidize on-the-job training for veterans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Of the 71,000 veterans in the Nebraska workforce, almost 4,000 are actively seeking employment, said subsidy bill sponsor Sen. Jeremy Nordquist of Omaha. The bill would grant businesses up to $12,000 for the first six months to cover on-the-job training costs for veterans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;We need to fight for our veterans like they have fought for our country and state,&#8221; Nordquist said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The bills, while aimed at Nebraska&#8217;s more than 143,000 veterans, also are meant to attract skilled military retirees to the state&#8217;s workforce, Nebraska Chamber of Commerce Vice President Jamie Karl said. In 2013, 52 percent of business leaders in 35 Nebraska communities said they had difficulty recruiting qualified employees. Karl said the proposed legislation would enhance the Chamber&#8217;s Good Life for Veterans initiative, which connects unemployed veterans with employers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;It&#8217;s not a silver bullet, but it is part of the puzzle to solve our workforce problems,&#8221; Karl said of the year-old initiative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sen. Merv Riepe of Ralston also introduced a resolution Wednesday to provide veterans with direct access to local health care services rather than force them to travel long distances to federal veterans hospitals. And Sen. Tommy Garrett of Bellevue said he plans to introduce a bill later this week further exempting military retirement from state income tax.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nebraska lawmakers are pushing for expanded veterans benefits including hiring preference and more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":34156,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-noindex":"","_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-nofollow":"","_yoast_wpseo_canonical":"","_acf":"","_yoast_wpseo_primary_category":0,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","_smg_distribution_targets":[]},"categories":[7,19],"tags":[],"coauthors":[2717],"class_list":["post-15124","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-education-transition","category-veterans"],"acf":{"subheadline":"","legacy_arc_id":"KR35MXNVJVBBJKSLEYZ2KCFWII","arc_canonical_url":"\/2015\/01\/15\/nebraska-senators-announce-veterans-job-bills\/","remove_feature_photo":false,"is_sponsored":false,"subtype":"","redirect_url":"","disable_inline_ads":false,"native_logo_pretext":"Presented By:"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.0 (Yoast SEO v28.1) -
