GOVERNMENT INFORMATION GP DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE APPROPRIATIONS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2020 WEDNESDAY, APRIL 10, 2019 U.S. SENATE, SUBCOMMITTEE OF THE COMMITTEE ON APPROPRIATIONS, Washington, DC. The subcommittee met at 9:59 a.m. in room SD-138, Dirksen Senate Office Building, Hon. Richard Shelby (chairman) presiding. Present: Senators Shelby, Collins, Murkowski, Blunt, Hoeven, Durbin, Tester, 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. The subcommittee will come to order. I am pleased to welcome our distinguished panel to consider the President's budget request for the National Guard and Reserve components in fiscal year 2020. Today-I think I need to turn that on. 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 Richard Scobee, Chief of the Air Force Reserve; Vice Admiral Luke McCol- lum, Chief of the Navy Reserve; and Major General Bradley James, Commander of Marine Corps Forces Reserve. I thank all of you for your appearance here today. I think it is imperative that our Nation's guard and reserve com- ponents be sufficiently manned, trained, and equipped to continue to maintain and to defend our national security interests. Our Nation's guard and reserve components are a vital part of the Nation's total military force. They provide support during homeland emergencies, participate in important joint training exer- cises, execute missions with our partners, and are currently de- ployed around the globe in support of combat operations. The men and women that make up our reserve components also serve our Nation by remaining ready to put their lives on hold. Whether they are called to mobilize, voluntarily deploy, or transi- tion to full-time support, they represent the very best of us. (1)
