Mr. Speaker, I mention that I support this bill because it is a step forward, but we do have a more comprehensive solution for reservists. It is called the GI Parity Bill. It would provide parity to our reservists and our guardsmen to make sure that the time they put in for training counts for their qualification for GI Bill benefits. I am disappointed that that bill has not been brought to the floor because I think that is the real solution to making sure that our guardsmen and our reservists are treated fairly. Mr. Speaker, I reserve the balance of my time.
