Our Mission is to promote and advance the professionalism, status, and welfare of the Enlisted Members of the New Mexico Army and Air National Guard.
The Enlisted Association depends on your membership to have a voice on Capital Hill in D.C. and here at the Roundhouse in Santa Fe! The more members, the stronger that voice is. We have successfully lobbied / assisted in lobbying for free license plates, veteran’s exemptions on property taxes ($2,000), yearly SGLI refunds, 50% off fishing and hunting licenses, free annual passes to NM state parks and recreation areas, state income tax advantages, and continue working on a variety of other issues that our membership has asked us to prioritize.
But that is just one aspect of our membership! We also provide a $1,000 A,D, & D insurance to all our active members, give out multiple scholarships each year (3x $1,000 state scholarships, 1x $1,000 USAA scholarship, and scholarships with our national college sponsors including multiple full ride scholarships), and emergency no interest loans based on need.
