## Summary

**Extends Post-9/11 GI Bill eligibility to National Guard members performing full-time National Guard duty or Guard active duty.** The bill would also align some reserve calls to active duty with Post-9/11 benefit rules and set a one-year delayed effective date while applying the change retroactively to service since September 11, 2001. - National Guard members: Those serving full-time National Guard duty or on National Guard active duty would become eligible for Post-9/11 educational benefits, bringing parity with other reserve components. - Reserve component service: Service called or ordered to active duty under specified sections of title 10 or title 14 would qualify for Post-9/11 benefits, while inactive-duty training and annual training duty are excluded. - Timing and entitlement rules: The changes would take effect one year after enactment and apply to service on or after September 11, 2001. Section 3321(a) would govern entitlement timing as if these amendments had been enacted immediately after the 2008 Post-9/11 law.
