    1. Military Training Programs Deliver ROI: Veterans' superior employment outcomes validate federal and state investment in military training and veteran services programs.

    2. Concentrated High-Value Talent Pool: While representing only 7% of unemployed 25-34 year-olds, veterans bring military training, security clearance eligibility, and proven performance.

    3. Strategic Economic Development Asset: The 19,400 unemployed veterans across TAM states represent ready-to-deploy talent for AI hyperscaler projects requiring skilled, cleared personnel.

    4. Scalable Opportunity: Targeted veteran training programs can leverage existing superior employment performance for maximum return on workforce development investment.

    Workforce Development Implications

    • Proven Success Rate: Veteran-focused training programs can expect higher placement and retention rates based on demonstrated employment advantages.

    • Security-Critical Roles: Essential for AI infrastructure requiring U.S. citizenship and security clearances.

    • Quality Investment: Small, targeted veteran programs yield disproportionate economic impact.
