She would also make military career intermission programs permanent so that servicemembers and their families can take time off to raise children, care for an ill family member, or explore educational opportunities.

2. Support military spouses pursuing jobs and education. Too many military spouses are unemployed or underemployed—and a recent study shows that it costs our economy $1 billion per year. As president, Hillary will expand state and federal resources and engage the private sector to boost training and job opportunities for the husbands and wives of members of the military.

3. Help families who are changing locations or transitioning out of the military. Hillary’s plan will create more flexibility around military moves by taking family circumstances into account in assignments and letting families continue receiving their housing allowance for up to six months after a military member’s Permanent Change of Station (PCS). It will also expand job services and transition programs for families of servicemembers who are leaving the military.

4. Ensure children in military families receive a high-quality education. Hillary’s plan will boost support for Defense Department schools and public schools with a large number of military children. And it will preserve and protect the Post-9/11 G.I. Bill, including educational benefits for spouses and children of military personnel.

5. Champion the care and needs of service members. As president, Hillary will establish a standing council on servicemembers, veterans, and military families to ensure government agencies are meeting their needs. She will also establish a series of town halls on military bases between White House and Department of Defense officials and military families.

Show me Trumps plan.
This is good for the single mothers that have INVADED the military. Another reason women are HATED in the military. Most single mothers get the light, non deploying duty, while the men are sent all over.

Spouses ALREADY get a lot of preferences. Maybe the MINORITY spouses can't make it...they can't make it anywhere.

Huh? The hell with what is NEEDED, let the service member decide when and where they'll be stationed? They get a NEW housing allowance when they PCS.

Military schools and schools near bases (unless minority sh!tholes) ARE better than the average school. The military stays involved in the local schools.

Much of the military is full of minorities, that's why they NEED so much help. These families have gone from government welfare to a government "job" because they can't make it anywhere else. Without the government taking care of everything, they'd be lost.

Hillary isn't REALLY doing anything special.

Sadly you are 100% correct the Gvt can not run anything effiecienty or effectively perhaps the exception is our MIlitary and again perhaps not . Somehow the VA should be privatized or our Vets should get a medical plan that allows them to be treated by any Dr. anywhere of their choosing .
Definitely NOT, the government runs NOTHING well.

The federal government is THE largest EVERYTHING. It IS the economy now.
