Benefits for state employees called to National Guard duty
Governor Sebelius crafted and passed Kansas' "Military Bill of Rights", providing financial assistance to state employees called to National Guard duty, tuition assistance to those called to duty while in school, and additional financial security for
the families of those who answer the call to serve their state and nation. As well, Governor Sebelius recently signed into law greater benefits for the families of those Kansans who make the ultimate sacrifice to protect our freedom and way of life.

Strategic Military Planning to protect vital military assets
Our military installations contribute more than $2 billion a year to the Kansas economy and generate tens of thousands of jobs in Kansas. They are integral to our economy and our heritage. That's why I am convening the Governor's Strategic Military
Planning Commission that includes members of the Kansas congressional delegation, leaders from our military base communities, military experts, and key legislators. They will work together to protect our vital military assets.
