NGAUS is calling on President Joe Biden to put his support behind bipartisan legislation that would provide access to no-fee health care for members of the National Guard and reserves.
In a letter to the commander in chief, the NGAUS president, retired Brig. Gen. J. Roy Robinson, urges Biden to support the Healthcare for Our Troops Act (H.R. 3512).
In the same letter, Robinson thanks Biden and the first lady for their support of the Guard during the security mission at the U.S. Capitol.
“I especially appreciated you mentioning all that the nation has asked of the Guard over the past year. ‘We owe you,’ you wrote, ‘and we will always have your backs.’ You had our backs when you were a senator and vice president, and as you proudly stated, the Bidens are a Guard family,” Robinson wrote. “We ask that you now have our backs again as president and our commander in chief.”
