Ed Perlmutter (CO-07) released the following statement in honor of Veterans Day and Military Families Appreciation Month. "One of my biggest priorities is standing up for those brave men and women who stood in harm's way to protect our country. I want to extend my thanks to all our veterans for their continued service to our community and our country. We also take time this month to honor those who stay behind and sacrifice while their loved one is serving. The life of many military families can be stressful as our men and women in uniform are relocated around the country or deployed overseas. Spouses may have a difficult time establishing careers of their own, and military children can have a difficult time moving between schools and enrolling in proper classes. It is important we provide ample resources to help our soldiers,veterans and their families. That's why I support First Lady Michelle Obama and Dr. Jill Biden's Joining Forces Initiative which is helping military families with job training and military spouse hiring programs, as well as easing transfers to new schools, or helping school districts respond to the unique needs of the children of our soldiers. This Veterans Day, join me in thanking an active duty soldier or veteran, and also thank their family who sacrifice quietly here at home." ### f t # e | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
