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.
