With just 27 days until Election Day, I’ve got big news:
We just launched our first TV ad of the general election, highlighting one of the many ways that Maria has made life better for the people of our state: by working with businesses to create jobs here in Washington, including for our veterans.
Too many veterans serve our country and then find it difficult to secure jobs when they return home. Maria knows that we’ve got to change that.
Click here to see our new ad, “Great People,” and see what Maria is doing to boost job creation and get veterans working again in Washington.
Maria was a cosponsor of the VOW to Hire Heroes Act, a law that’s helping veterans find jobs here in Washington and around the country.
This law:
- Offers tax incentives to businesses that hire unemployed veterans;
- Created a retraining program to help veterans transition to new jobs back at home; and
- Provides new pathways to make the jump back into civilian life a little easier.
While we still have more work to do to create jobs for veterans and non-veterans alike, this is a program that we can all be proud of.
Filmed in Tacoma at J.M. Martinac Shipbuilding, our new ad shows why Maria is the right choice for Washington — watch it and then share it with everyone you know.
In 27 days, we have a chance to send a champion of Washington back to the Senate. We know that Maria will fight for us day-in and day-out to increase employment opportunities and bring back jobs to Washington.
But we still need to get the word out in these final weeks of the campaign — please watch our new ad, then forward this email to your friends so that they can watch it, too!
Thank you,
Robin Brand Campaign Manager Friends of Maria
