Streamlines duty rules and benefits for military reservists and National Guard members.
This bill would simplify the many different ways military reservists and National Guard members are called to duty. It would create four clear duty categories and ensure that members receive consistent benefits, like pay and healthcare, regardless of the specific order they receive. This would affect all members of the Reserve components and the National Guard.
Today, military reservists and National Guard members can be called to duty under many different legal authorities, which can lead to confusion about their pay, benefits, and protections. After this bill, these various call-up authorities would be streamlined into four clear duty categories, ensuring that members performing similar types of service receive consistent benefits and protections.
