Doug Burgum: Tuition assistance & tax exemption for military & veterans

Gov. Burgum released the following statement in observance of Veterans Day: "The current conflicts overseas and the crisis on our own southern border are daily reminders that a strong military is absolutely necessary to maintain peace through strength, and that has only been possible through the service and sacrifice of our military veterans," Burgum said.

Exempt military pay, and military retirement pay, from state income tax for active duty, National Guard and Reserve members.
Allow North Dakota National Guard members who attend college out-of-state to qualify for State Tuition Assistance.
Allow child care providers licensed by the U.S. Department of Defense to operate in North Dakota with their DOD license.
Burgum also pushed for funding for a North Dakota Military Museum.

Rick Becker: End the "woke" agenda to encourage military recruitment

Q: What are the causes of decline in U.S. military recruitment and retention?

A: The "woke" agenda combined with a concentrated effort by Leftists to tell our nation's youth the lie that "America was never great" has caused the plummet in recruitment and retention. When a potential recruit is told "America was never great," what motivation would they have to defend their country with their life?
