California State Employee Guard and Reserves May Have Extended Benefits

California has authorized the governor to extend certain military benefits by executive order by up to an additional 1,460 (formerly, 365) days. The new law applies to state employees who are members of the California National Guard or a United States military reserve organization, and who are ordered to active duty on and after September 11, 2001, as a result of the War on Terrorism. The benefits that may be extended are those detailed in Section 19775.18 of the Government Code (Ch. 592 (S. 1353), L. 2007, enacted September 30, 2008).
