CBO Papers: An Analysis of Alternative Army Forces Proposed by the National Guard Association of the United States

Abstract

This year the National Guard Association of the United States (NGAUS) submitted a proposal to the Congress and the Administration that would shift more of the Army's forces into units manned by the Army National Guard. The merits of this proposal may be considered as the Congress debates the appropriate size and composition of Army forces. The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) analyzed the NGAUS proposal at the request of the ranking minority member of the House Committee on Armed Services and the ranking minority member of the Subcommittee on Military Personnel and Compensation of the House Committee on Armed Services. In keeping with CBO's charter to provide objective and nonpartisan analyses, the paper makes no recommendations.
