Top 5 Issues that LANGEA and EANGUS are working on:

 

  1. Veterans Status: Recognizing Title 32 National Guardsmen and Reservists as veterans if they serve honorably for 20 or more years and are qualified to receive retired pay.
  2. Maintaining the National Guard as an Operations Reserve
  3. Correct the “fiscal year” barrier that prevents National Guard and Reserve members from being eligible for early retirement credits if their 90 days of active duty service spanned two fiscal years.
  4. Protecting Duel-Status Military Technicians from furlough under future sequestration scenarios
  5. Reduce the retirement annuity age from age 60 to age 57 for traditional Guard and reserve members who complete at least 30 years of service.
