Trump issued a message to honor National Guard and Reserve members and the businesses that employ them. This recognition highlights the dual role these citizens play as both local workers and military members who answer the call during national emergencies.
The message credits the National Guard with helping to lower crime rates across the country. It notes that Guard members have been used to protect transit hubs and public spaces, which helped lead to a significant drop in murders and carjackings in major cities.
Trump praised employers for keeping jobs and benefits available for service members while they are away on duty. The message explains that this support from businesses allows the military to stay strong without forcing workers to give up their careers.
The statement emphasizes that the partnership between the military and private employers is vital for national security. It notes that the skills learned in the military, like discipline and leadership, make these individuals better employees when they return to their civilian jobs.
