Calls to allow members who accept T32 AGR/MILTECH positions to retain contracted bonuses and incentives.

Incentive contracts vary in wording but typically state that bonuses or other incentives will be forfeited if an individual accepts a T32 AGR or Technician position. This stipulation has created a significant barrier, limiting the pool of applicants for these positions. As a result, many highly qualified individuals who have earned substantial bonuses and incentives are reluctant to pursue these opportunities due to the financial penalties involved.

The Enlisted Association of the National Guard of the United States urges Congress to allow the retention of incentives when hired into T32 AGR and Technician positions.
