Wyoming state guard-amendments.
What changed between versions
Removed the prerequisite that the National Guard must be ordered into federal service before the State Guard can be organized, allowing the governor to activate the guard independently.
Expanded the list of authorized duties to include responding to natural or manmade emergencies, suppressing riots and mobs, supporting wildland fire response, and performing other duties required by the governor.
Added a specific appropriation of $25,000 from the general fund to the governor's office to cover the costs of appointing the defense council and equipping the State Guard.
Removed redundant text and consolidated sections regarding the organization, pay, and eligibility requirements to create a cleaner final version.
Confirmed the effective date of July 1, 2026, and established a funding period ending on June 30, 2028.
