This is not an attempt to undo the Guard. It is a very small number of people.
I do think it is a bit dangerous, though, for us to enter into an era where we are usurping the authority of our Governors.
There are only about 578 people that will be affected by this. You know, the Guard is over 100,000.
I think a lot of us up here would agree that the federal bureaucracy has become bloated, but I think we need to be a little bit more precise in downsizing a department with a mission as critical.
