What this bill does
Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau
Under one provision in current law, a member of the national guard who is
called into state active duty may receive the same amount of travel expenses as the
federal government pays to an officer or enlisted member of equal rank in the
corresponding branch of the U.S. armed forces. A separate provision in current law
prohibits mileage reimbursement that exceeds the mileage reimbursement rate for
state employees, which may be less than the federal rate.
This bill authorizes mileage reimbursement at the federal rate for a member
of the national guard who is called into state active duty regardless of the applicable
rate for state employees.
