Sen. Martin Heinrich is calling on the U.S. Army National Guard to conduct an audit of bonuses for men and women who recently re-enlisted.
Heinrich wrote Gen. Frank Grass a letter Wednesday asking for the review after a New Mexico man failed to receive his re-enlistment payment from 2009.
The New Mexico Democrat says the Army National Guard confirmed the man was owed $7,500 but never received the payment. Heinrich says he wanted to make sure other servicemen and servicewomen are receiving their re-enlistment payments.
National Guard Spokesman Jeremy Webster says the National Guard will work with Heinrich and his staff to alleviate their concerns.
