The American Legion comes through for New Markets Tax Credits for Veterans

As a relatively recent member of the American Legion, I was personally skeptical that a big , old organization could move quickly on passing a resolution supporting New Markets Tax Credits. However, Joe Sharpe, Director of the Economic Commission and his staff guided Resolution 363 to passage at the Legion’s Annual Conference in Phoenix, Arizona. Here’s hoping Congress might listen to the Legion’s 2.4+ million members. Veterans got a “twofer” at the conference as Joe also put together outstanding panels showing Veteran and Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Businesses how to develop strategies to access contracts with all Federal Agencies.
