HR 4463 United States House · 118th Congress

District of Columbia National Guard Commanding General Residency Act

This bill requires the Commanding General of the District of Columbia National Guard to reside within the District of Columbia. It amends a 1889 law (D.C. Code § 49-301) by adding a new requirement that the Commanding General must live in Washington, D.C., directly affecting that position. The provision takes effect one year after the bill becomes law. The change aims to ensure the Commanding General maintains a local presence in the District they serve.
