The subcommittee met at 10:00 a.m., in room SD-192, Dirksen Senate Office Building, Hon. Richard C. Shelby (chairman) pre- siding. Present: Senators Shelby, Blunt, Daines, Moran, Hoeven, Durbin, Leahy, Tester, Udall, and Baldwin. DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE NATIONAL GUARD AND RESERVE STATEMENT OF GENERAL JOSEPH L. LENGYEL, CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU OPENING STATEMENT OF SENATOR RICHARD C. SHELBY Senator SHELBY. Good morning. This subcommittee will come to order. I am pleased this morning to welcome our distinguished panel to review the budget requests of the National Guard and the Reserve components. Today, the committee will hear from General Joseph Lengyel, Chief of the National Guard Bureau; Lieutenant General Charles Luckey, Chief of the Army Reserve; Lieutenant General Maryanne Miller, Chief of the Air Force Reserve; Vice Admiral Luke McCol- lum, Chief of the Navy Reserve; and Lieutenant General Rex McMillian, Commander of Marine Corps Forces Reserve. Our Nation's active duty and reserve component forces are more fully integrated today than at any time in the modern era. Guards- men and Reservists have been regularly called upon since 2001 to deploy in support of our Nation's contingency operations abroad and to protect our citizens at home. Through programs like the Guard's State Partnership Program, they participate in joint secu- rity cooperation activities with our international partners. In 2018 now, as in years past, we have seen our Guard and Re- serve forces called upon to assist local communities devastated by natural disasters such as Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria. And most recently, the President has announced his decision to send up to 4,000 National Guard troops to the southwest border in support of the U.S. Border Patrol's mission.
