U.S. Secretary of Commerce Penny Pritzker today issued a statement on Veterans Day.

“Today is an important opportunity to honor America’s veterans, both those we have lost and those currently serving our nation at home and abroad. I am proud of the thousands of veterans who continue to take up the call of public service as part of our team at the Commerce Department, and throughout the federal government. As we recognize the service and sacrifices of the brave men and women of our armed forces, the administration remains committed to helping veterans find good jobs and ensuring they have every opportunity to pursue the American dream.”
