With Veterans Day on Wednesday, a new report from Florida TaxWatch looked at services the Sunshine State offers the 1.6 million veterans who call Florida home.

“Florida is proud of the brave servicemen and women who have chosen to build their lives and raise their families in the Sunshine State,” said Dominic Calabro, the president and CEO of Florida TaxWatch, on Tuesday. “Our Legislature and governor have recognized the importance of giving back to those who have sacrificed for us, and their commitment has resulted in Florida becoming the most veteran-friendly state in America.

“Florida TaxWatch is pleased to honor and thank Florida veterans for their service,” Calabro added.

The report, which can be read here, showed “Florida’s GI Bill” passed in 2014 to help veterans with education and job assistance while extending drivers licenses.
