- National Guard benefits, increase survivor and education benefits, Secs. 31-3-2, 31-6-4, 31-12-1, 31-12-2 am'd.
- Description
Under current law, certain education and survivor benefits are unavailable to Alabama national guardsmen who perform duties under state active duty status for periods.
This bill would expand survivor and education benefits to Alabama national guardsmen who are on state active duty for a period less than the existing 30-day minimum, so that guardsmen assisting with natural disasters or other emergencies may be eligible for state and federal benefits.
This bill would also raise the compensation for surviving dependents of Alabama national guardsmen from $10,000 to $100,000.
