Wild climate in Texas, Florida rip tides in multiple counties, Miami streets have high tide breach, Virginia are losing large ship docks to rising sea levels, are starting to put a strain on the state National Guard .
Problem is they maybe in Nepal, at a forest fire, or a war zone, but they finalize realize they may not be here(their state) when needed.
Governors will start to push-back and tell Congress to provide the ARMY and leave the Guard alone.
