AI Summary

This bill updates Montana's state laws to align with the most recent federal military codes and regulations, specifically for the Montana National Guard. The bill amends section 10-1-104 of Montana Code Annotated by changing the reference date for applicable federal laws and regulations from October 1, 2023, to October 1, 2025. This update ensures that the Montana National Guard operates under the most current federal military guidelines, including the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ), which governs military legal proceedings and conduct. The bill applies to both active duty guard/reserve (AGR) personnel serving under Title 32 of the United States Code and those serving within the state, with the proviso that these federal regulations must not conflict with Montana's state constitution, laws, or specific military regulations. The changes will take effect for events and proceedings occurring on or after October 1, 2025, providing a clear timeline for implementation of the updated federal military standards.
