§ 143B-1280.  Purpose. The General Assembly finds and declares that veterans in North Carolina represent a strong, productive part of the workforce of this State and are disadvantaged in their pursuit of civilian employment through their delayed entry into the civilian labor market and that it is only proper and in the public interest and public welfare that veterans be provided priority in programs of employment and job training assistance.  (1997-171, s. 1; 2015-241, s. 24.1(j); 2015-268, s. 7.3(a).)
