CLEARWATER, Fla.  , Oct. 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — 78% of veterans say they feel the public perception of veterans is positive and 64% of vets have faith in our military.  54% of veterans say they would encourage family members to join the military today.  Surveyed veterans also give the VA a “C” grade while seeking less bureaucracy and red tape.

The findings come from a poll conducted by SurveyUSA on behalf of Veterans Help Group, one of the nation’s leading advocates for disabled Veterans.  The poll was commissioned in an effort to put veterans and disabled veterans issues in the forefront of the national conversation so that during this time of transition their voices are heard and their concerns are taken seriously. 

“Veterans are an important voice in our country.  Their insight on issues that impact their lives and families is not only good for public conversation but also helps us to continually improve the way we serve disabled vets,” said Joe Waring, a Board member of Veterans Help Group.

“All of us at Veterans Help Group are committed to working with anyone who can ease the process and help clear a path to get disabled veterans the access to the benefits they deserve,” added Matt Sauerwald, President, Veterans Help Group.

Highlights of findings:

What is the biggest concern facing veterans and their families today? A large plurality, 42%, say it’s the treatment of veterans. 28% say it is the economy, and 12% say it’s debt. Other issues are in single digits, including immigration at 7%, crime at 3%, and national defense and education, each at 2%.

The US Department of Veterans Affairs – the VA – gets a “C” grade from America’s veterans, scoring an overall 2.1 GPA on a traditional 4-point GPA scale. Liberal veterans grade a little more generously, a C+, conservatives give lower scores in the C- range.

What is the single greatest thing the VA could do to improve the lives of families of disabled veterans? Respondents are split between two main options, with 37% saying it would be having less bureaucracy and red tape and 31% calling for better access to care. 17% say more money would be most helpful; 14% say it would be more help for family members.

Veterans were next asked how much faith they had in each of the following institutions. Those saying they had “a great deal” or “significant” faith in each, ranked from most to least, with only the military producing strong numbers:

64%: The military33%: The Social Security Administration29%: The Supreme Court of the United States28%: The institution of the office of the President of the United States, regardless of who the specific President is at any given time26%: The Department of Veterans Affairs11%: Congress.

Is the US heading the Right or Wrong direction?  64% wrong, 32% right.

The questions switched from veteran issues to issues of national interest.

Veterans were shown a list of concerns facing the country today and asked to select up to 3 as being the largest items of concern. Percentage selecting each item, ranked from highest to lowest:

44%: High cost of living / inflation41%: Immigration31%: The economy24%: Government / Poor leadership17%: Healthcare – access and affordability16%: Federal budget debt / deficit16%: Crime14%: Abortion13%: Environment / Climate change11%: Treatment of veterans

Which presidential candidate do you feel will be best at addressing the issues facing our country?  52% Donald Trump, 42% Kamala Harris, 7% not sure.

Who do you feel will win the Presidential election?  47% Donald Trump, 42% Kamala Harris, 12% Not Sure.

About the Poll / Filtering: SurveyUSA interviewed 900 US veterans adults age 18+ online 09/19/24 through 09/22/24, using non-probability sample, pre-screened for former US servicemembers, provided by Lucid Holdings LLC of New Orleans. Of the veterans, 19% – 174 individuals – were identified as being disabled veterans; 37% – 330 individuals – were identified as retired veterans; 44% – 396 individuals – were identified as being discharged veterans who were neither disabled nor retired. The pool of adult survey respondents was weighted to targets provided by the Pew Research Center and the National Center for Veterans Analysis and Statistics for gender, age, and ethnicity.

Companies, in Partnership with InsurTech Israel, Host Second Annual Global Event at Holmes Murphy Headquarters

DES MOINES, Iowa, Oct. 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Holmes Murphy and BrokerTech Ventures are excited to announce they will be co-hosting the second annual Rapid Global Insurtech Accelerator (RGIA) in partnership with InsurTech Israel. The RGIA will bring 14 insurtech startup founders from across the globe — representing six of seven continents — to Holmes Murphy’s headquarters in Des Moines, Iowa, November 11-14, 2024.

Kobi Bendelak, CEO and Founder of InsurTech Israel, created the premiere program in 2023 and hosted the inaugural event in his home country of Tel Aviv, Israel. Bendelak says this year, they chose to hold the event in Des Moines as the ideal U.S. location not only because the city is an insurance and financial services hub in the country but also due to Holmes Murphy’s headquarters and extensive operations in the city and state.

“I’m consistently in awe of the incredible work Des Moines and the greater state of Iowa have done in the insurtech space,” said Bendelak. “Couple that with our connection between Holmes Murphy, BrokerTech Ventures, and InsurTech Israel, and it’s amazing how we’re able to further strengthen ecosystem ties and build relationships in the global insurance industry. Our relationship with these companies and the state of Iowa is a testament to the power of collaboration, transcending personal, business, and international dimensions.”

The foundation and purpose of the RGIA is to build upon the global insurtech ecosystem and not only provide mentorship and business support to accepted global insurtech founders, but also open the door for the global insurtech founders to experience how business is done in the U.S. marketplace.

The startups coming to Des Moines from Africa, Australia, Ireland, Latin America, and beyond will be bringing a diverse range of commercial solutions and technologies with them. As Iowa remains at the forefront of insurtech and the insurance industry, the state, region, and city of Des Moines have been instrumental in bringing this event to life. 

“I am inspired by the commitment of our friends and business partners in the Central Iowa insurance community, as well as the state of Iowa, to help InsurTech Israel bring together the best minds in insurance and technology and bring to market trailblazing solutions,” said Bendelak. “Their efforts to drive innovation in the global industry further cements Iowa’s position as a powerhouse for insurance technology.”

“With both Holmes Murphy’s and BrokerTech Ventures’ headquarters in Des Moines, our collaboration and partnership with the RGIA is a natural fit,” said Dan Keough, Holmes Murphy Chairman and CEO and BrokerTech Ventures Co-Founder and Co-CEO. “Our goal will always be to bring to market solutions that help our clients identify risks sooner so they can drive down costs faster. We believe insurtechs all over the world have technologies that can help us do that, and we are committed to elevating and supporting them for the greater benefit of all stakeholders.”
