“Duty Status Reform will reduce administrative burdens, simplify a system that has become too complex, and make the Guard easier to access and employ when the nation needs us most. NGAUS is grateful to Senators Senator Jerry Moran and Sen. Jacky Rosen for their leadership, and we are encouraged by the broad bipartisan support behind this legislation,” said Maj. Gen. (Ret.) Francis M. McGinn, the NGAUS president, on introduction of Senate legislation to address duty status reform.
