(IDAHO FALLS) – The “Vow to Hire Heroes Act” took effect Nov. 22 and is aimed to helping veterans gain employment after serving abroad. President Obama and Congress are hoping to ease the burden of finding jobs for veterans by giving businessmen tax breaks for hiring vets. Businesses could receive $1,500 to $9,600 in tax credits if they hire a veteran. The program is set to run through the end of 2012.
