The Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine registered the appeal of the Christian Corps and officially accepted for consideration its proposals for legislative measures to stimulate the employment of war veterans.
As stated in the response from the Office of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine dated 26 August 2026, the Corps’ documents were forwarded to the Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada, Ruslan Stefanchuk, as well as to the chairs and co-chairs of all parliamentary factions and deputy groups.
The Christian Corps’ initiative is to grant tax benefits to enterprises where the share of war veterans is at least 30% of the total number of employees.
The drafting of this package of documents was the Christian Corps’ response to a proposal by the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky. During the IX International Veterans Forum, the head of state proposed codifying veterans’ legislation and adopting a Veterans Code that would cover about 1,5 million veterans. The President invited the Cabinet of Ministers, the Verkhovna Rada, and veterans themselves to participate in drafting the relevant legislative proposals.
The draft law on tax benefits for hiring veterans is the first in a series of the Corps’ legislative initiatives. In the near future, proposals on raising the birth rate—which the Corps proposes to treat as the highest priority of state policy—will also be submitted to parliament.
The Christian Corps is an association of combat units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine that have proclaimed Christian values as the basis of their activities and worldview. The Corps’ mission: defend the state, defend the family, defend every citizen’s own endeavor.
