National Invest In Veterans Week® Champions Federal INVEST Act to Empower Veterans in Clean Energy Sector

National Invest In Veterans Week® Champions Federal INVEST Act to Empower Veterans in Clean Energy Sector

National Invest In Veterans Week® is actively advocating for H.R. 8786, known as the Incentives for our Nation’s Veterans in Energy Sustainability Technologies (INVEST) Act. Introduced by Rep. Yvette Clarke [D-NY] and co-sponsors, this federal legislation aims to integrate veteran talent into the U.S. clean energy economy. The bill proposes amendments to Section 51(d)(14) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, modifying the Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC). Under the INVEST Act, private employers would receive significant tax credits for hiring certified 'specified veterans' for roles in renewable energy. To qualify, veterans must hold specific Department of Defense (DoD) credentials, vocational degrees in renewable energy, or LEED certification. National Invest In Veterans Week® views H.R. 8786 as a crucial component of its broader 'Invest In Veterans Stimulus Act' blueprint, which seeks to shift the narrative from veteran dependency to direct economic empowerment.

Mother Kuskokwim Tribal Coalition Rejects NovaGold's Corporate Restructuring for Donlin Gold Project

Mother Kuskokwim Tribal Coalition Rejects NovaGold's Corporate Restructuring for Donlin Gold Project

The Mother Kuskokwim Tribal Coalition has issued a strong statement in response to NovaGold Corporation's recent announcement of a corporate restructuring aimed at consolidating ownership of the proposed Donlin Gold project. NovaGold, a new corporation created in Delaware, intends to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange. However, the Coalition asserts that this corporate maneuver does not address the fundamental lack of 'social license' for the project from the communities directly affected. They emphasize that the restructuring does not alter the significant environmental risks associated with the proposed massive open-pit mine, a 315-mile natural gas pipeline, and a 471-foot tailings dam in a seismically active region. These developments are planned for one of Alaska's most vital salmon-producing watersheds, the Kuskokwim River, which is crucial for the subsistence of local communities.
