Methuen High School Online

Unless Boran Yi Armstrong can pay off her debt by next week, regulators plan to deny the Methuen woman a license required under the new laws. That will block the 34-year-old from selling loans to Bay State customers, decimating her income.

Jeanne Pappalardo, a first-term member of the Methuen City Council, decided to act after hearing McCann's plea. She put forth a resolution aptly named Veteran Preference for City Employment, a resolution that would make it easier for veterans to find work with the city of Methuen. Just last month, the Methuen City Council unanimously passed the resolution.

"[Veterans] can come into City Hall ... get an application, fill out the application for any type of a job that they feel as though they are qualified to do, and put their name on this list," Pappalardo told MTV News. "If something becomes available, they will be called upon first."

Although many cities and towns already give preference to veterans in their hiring practices, Methuen's measure took the additional step of codifying it in the city's laws and creating a signup list for unemployed veterans.
