Hawaii HB674 amends pay and benefits for Hawaii National Guard officers and enlisted personnel.

Hawaii HB674 amends the pay and benefits for Hawaii National Guard officers and enlisted personnel. It ensures officers and warrant officers receive pay and allowances similar to those of the United States Army and Air Force. If these officers are activated for more than thirty days and lack health insurance, the state must provide TRICARE coverage. Enlisted personnel also receive comparable pay and allowances, with direct deposit options for their pay. The bill does not affect rights, penalties, or proceedings initiated before its effective date.
