Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:
1. That §44-83 of the Code of Virginia is amended and reenacted as follows:
§44-83. Pay and allowance of members.
When called into state active duty, not in the service of the
United States, officers of the National Guard shall receive the same pay and
allowances as prescribed for members of like rank in the United States Armed
Forces. For each day of such service, members of the National Guard, for
each day of service, shall receive the same pay and allowances as if they
were on a day of Annual Training. In no event shall a member receive basic
pay in an amount less than that prescribed for a member with the rank of E-6
who has more than 18 years of service. For each day of service, members of
the Virginia Defense Force called to state active duty shall receive the same
pay and allowances as persons of like grade in the National Guard for a day of
Annual Training, capped at 25 years of service.
[2. That the provisions of this act shall not become effective unless an explicit authorization to allocate a sum sufficient to effectuate the purposes of this act is included in a general appropriation act passed in 2019 by the General Assembly that becomes law. ]
