All in Veteran Policy Advocacy

Veterans Driving U.S. Economic Strength: National Invest In Veterans Week® Aligns with Growth and Opportunity

The Trump administration’s focus on reducing taxes, cutting red tape, and strengthening domestic industries aligns perfectly with the goals of veteran empowerment. These policies aim to create a business environment where entrepreneurs, particularly veterans, can thrive. Republican-led initiatives like tax cuts and infrastructure investment will further strengthen the environment for business expansion, creating new opportunities for veterans to lead in their communities.

Angel Shuford, Vice President of NIVW, emphasized:

"Veterans have always been at the forefront of American progress. With the right policies, we can unleash their full potential in the economy."

National Invest in Veterans Week® vs. National Veterans Small Business Week: A Call for a More Comprehensive Approach

Veteran entrepreneurship is vital to the U.S. economy, with veteran-owned businesses contributing over $1.2 trillion annually. However, there is a stark difference in the approach, scope, and impact of National Invest in Veterans Week® (NIVW) and the Small Business Administration’s National Veterans Small Business Week (NVSBW). While both aim to support veteran entrepreneurs, NIVW goes beyond surface-level recognition by providing tailored resources, policy advocacy, and initiatives that address systemic barriers. 

A Global Salute: Celebrating International Veterans Day and the Legacy of National Invest in Veterans Week®
