    As a former Federal Technician and National Guardsman, I know how important this bill is to those who stand to benefit from it. The insurance that technicians are required to purchase costs more than twice what Tricare costs, yet they cannot legally purchase the cheaper option while their M-Day counterparts can. Please vote yes on this bill to support our Federal Employees in uniform!

    When uniformed service members who serve their country and state, regardless of the "status", they should have the best option for health care as their brothers and sister on the regular army side. To negate this option is a gross misjustice and can be fixed by congress doing what is morally and ethically correct. Please send the word or support this legislation so we can pave a way for the current and technicians of tomorrow. Your families deserve the very best since you give your very best! LIUNA Strong!

    We should have equal health-care coverage across the board.

    We should be able to choose what we feel is best for our families.

    We do just as much if not more than a regular Active Duty soldier does. Not only do we have our technician jobs, we also have to deal with the Army side of things. Not allowing us to have the same benefits that normal soldiers have makes zero sense. Give us all the benefits we deserve.

    This would help considerably, it's not fair that we should be made to have health care that is at such an inflated rate for a decent policy. I have BCBS because it is great insurance, but it's taking food out of my kids mouths.

    This must happen. It is a disservice to the men and women who are federal employees and also serve in the National Guard and Resrves.

    Hope this gets passed, so we can actually get the same incentives as non-dual status techs. Next thing should be getting us the right to get re-enlistment bonuses...
