On Homeland Security: Preserved funding for state-owned National Guard facilities

Senator Smith's bipartisan effort to fund military readiness and environmental conservation was signed into law. The Readiness and Environmental Protection Integration (REPI) Program helps military facilities manage surrounding land to ensure community development does not impede military training. The Army considered reinterpreting the statute that defines a military installation to remove state-owned facilities, meaning that state-owned National Guard facilities would have been unable to receive REPI funding. Sen. Smith introduced a provision to ensure these facilities continue to receive this support as part of a larger bipartisan defense bill.
