Sam Graves Statement on Passage of Hire More Heroes Act

Statement

Date: Jan. 7, 2015
Location: Washington, DC
Issues: Health Insurance Veterans Business, Consumers, and Employees

U.S. Congressman Sam Graves made the following statement after voting to protect our veterans from damaging effects of the President's healthcare law.

"I am proud that the House to action took allow more of our small businesses to hire our returning heroes," said Rep. Graves. "Under Obamacare, small businesses are penalized for hiring more than 50 employees at full-time hours. This legislation exempts our veterans from this provision," he continued.

"While I am glad that we were able to provide this relief to our veterans, I will continue to fight to repeal this trainwreck of a law and provide the same relief to all hard working Americans and small businesses."
