📣 How You Can Help Push the Military Spouse Hiring Act Forward
Military spouses deserve careers that move with them — but too often, constant PCS moves, licensing barriers, and gaps in employment stand in the way.
The Military Spouse Hiring Act (H.R. 2033 / S. 1027) is a bipartisan bill currently in Congress that would change that by expanding the Work Opportunity Tax Credit to include military spouses.
👉 This means more incentives for employers to hire military spouses and more stability for families who serve.
While the bill has been introduced in both the House and Senate, it still needs momentum to advance out of committee.
Here’s how YOU can help move it forward:
✨ 1. Contact Your Members of Congress
Let them know you support the Military Spouse Hiring Act and why it matters. Personal stories make the biggest impact.
✨ 2. Share This Post
Awareness leads to action. The more visibility the bill gets, the more pressure lawmakers feel to prioritize it.
✨ 3. Tag Employers & Business Leaders
Encourage businesses to publicly back the bill. Their support shows Congress that hiring military spouses is both good economics and good policy.
✨ 4. Follow Advocacy Organizations (like MSCC)
Stay updated on where the bill is in the legislative process and participate in coordinated action campaigns.
✨ 5. Talk About It in Your Community
Whether it’s your installation, local chamber, or spouse network — conversations fuel momentum.
Military spouses fuel our economy, our communities, and our national defense. It’s time federal policy recognized that.
Let’s raise our voices and move the Military Spouse Hiring Act forward. 🇺🇸💼✨
