Proposal Statement
Prevent earmarks on appropriations that reduce technician pay.
Recommendation Information
The NDAA established a strength floor for National Guard Technicians (which includes T5 NG Employees). Army National Guard manpower requirements determination process identifies the minimum number of full-time personnel (including T32 Technicians and T5 NG Employees) needed to perform a federal workload as required by law, regulation and policy. States only received authorization/authority to staff a percentage of these requirements based on a percent fill (Managed Level of Resource) each Fiscal Year determined by ARNG leadership priorities. DA funds these authorized positions using a calculation that considers the average pay and benefits cost. FY23 NGTP is funded at 94.5% for pay and benefits. NGB does not receive separate funding for training and travel or awards. NGB took $50M from NGTP this FY due to a “congressional mark”. Proposed resolution would prevent earmarks on appropriations to support pay and allowances of National Guard personnel appointed under 32 USC 709.
