No. 2
(Senate Joint Resolution No. 44)
A Senate Joint Resolution concerning
Maryland National Guard
FOR the purpose of expressing the sense of the General
Assembly of Maryland that members of the National Guard
of the United States and the Reserve Forces of the
Armed Forces of the United States deserve public
recognition for their vital contribution to our
national defense and that members of these forces need
the support and cooperation of their civilian employers
in order to train and remain ready to respond to
national emergencies.
WHEREAS, The National Guard and Reserve Forces of the
United States are an integral part of our total force policy
for national defense and need to be ready to respond, on
short notice to augment our Active Forces in national
emergencies; and in the case of the National Guard, to
provide for the protection of the lives and property of the
citizens of Maryland in the event of a State emergency.
WHEREAS, Attracting and retaining sufficient numbers of
people to serve in the Guard and Reserve in a no-draft
environment is a difficult challenge.
WHEREAS, The support of employers and firstline
supervisors to grant reservist-employees time off for
military training without detriment to earned vacation,
promotions, and job benefits is essential for securing a
strong Guard and Reserve Force; now, therefore, be it
|
