Lawmakers Blast DoD's Guard BudgetInsideDefense.com NewsStand | Fawzia Sheikh | October 04, 2006 The House and Senate are concerned that a "substantial shortfall" in equipment stocks will hurt the National Guard's ability to meet its dual missions of supplementing active-duty forces in Iraq and Afghanistan and responding to emergencies at home, according to the conference report on the fiscal year 2007 defense appropriations bill. Lawmakers asked the Defense Department to submit a report -- due no later than nine months following the legislation's enactment -- outlining how DOD has allotted funds and provided equipment for the National Guard in the next budget submission. … Conferees asked the chiefs of the reserves and National Guard to submit priority assessments to the congressional defense committees about the modernization of their forces no later than 30 days after the legislation takes effect. The conferees also directed that $2.94 billion of the procurement funds provided in an accompanying emergency supplemental should be available only for the National Guard and the Army Reserve, and that $500 million of this money should specifically fund National Guard and Reserve equipment identified by House lawmakers as essential requirements to fight the war on terrorism.
