VETERANS'
MEMORIAL BUILDING The Association for Service Disabled Veterans (ASDV) is the non-profit organization that pioneered the concept of "ENTREPRENEURSHIP" as a valid strategy in the rehabilitation of disabled in service and prisoner of war military veterans (SDV). In 1989, ASDV sponsored "pioneering" legislation that requires that 3% of the total procurement of State of California Government Agencies, and their prime contractors, be directed to service disabled veteran enterprises. That legislated policy was subsequently endorsed by a state constitutional referendum approved by the State of California Supreme Court. ASDV sponsored Public Law 106-50 that legislated a federal goal of 3% of all federal agency procurement, and that of their prime contractors, be directed to SDVE. This legislation also established supporting authority and institutions to enable the implementation of the P.L. 106-50 legislation. ASDV and the Task Force for Veterans' Enterprise (TFVE) also co-sponsored P.L. 108-183 Section 3, unanimously passed by the U.S. Congress and enacted by the President of the United States, 20 December, 2003. P.L. 108-183 establishes SDVE "SOLE SOURCE" and "RESTRICTED COMPETITION" for federal procurements, Public Law 109-461, "The Veterans Business Promotion Act of 2006" and the Veterans' section of the "SBA Reauthorization Act". ASDV and TFVE drafted the President's Executive Order 13360, that directed government action to assist SDVE. American Legion Post 236 is a leader in the response by the California American Legion to the need to provide entrepreneurship opportunities for America's Veterans.
