“The Soldiers and Airmen transitioning out of the National Guard have very distinct and unique challenges that the Enlisted Association of the National Guard of the United States (EANGUS) could not be more grateful to Congresswoman McClellan and Congressman Kelly for addressing. With the duality of being a Citizen Soldier, these issues are easy to dismiss as concerns outside of the Military scope of support, yet, with this bill, the Transition Assistance Program will embrace gratitude for the service of our Guard members and connect them with resources, education, and opportunities to demonstrate the full potential that they can contribute when they take the uniform off. This bill instantly helps us promote the wellbeing of our Soldiers, Airmen, and their families. EANGUS is proud to be a supporter of the Improving TAP for Guard and Reserve Servicemember Act, this bill will improve lives all across the country,” said Jeff Frisby, Executive Director of the Enlisted Association of the National Guard of the United States (EANGUS).
