Bill Summary
Honoring the Washington National Guard.
AI Summary
This resolution honors the Washington National Guard by recognizing their extensive contributions and service to the state and nation. The resolution highlights that over 8,000 National Guard members serve in nearly every legislative district, volunteering their time and responding to emergencies such as natural disasters, including flood and snow relief efforts in Lewis County and Leavenworth in 2022, and supporting evacuations during wildfires in 2023. The Guard's activities also include providing cybersecurity support for elections, training to address national security challenges, supporting the Western Regional Counterdrug Training Center, and deploying soldiers and airmen to international missions in Africa, Jordan, Thailand, and Malaysia. Additionally, the resolution praises the Guard's Washington Youth ChalleNGe Academy for helping at-risk young adults and its community engagement through Readiness Centers. The resolution officially expresses gratitude to the Guard's families and employers, recognizes the Guard's value to the state's safety and economy, and directs copies of the resolution to be sent to key military and government leaders, including the Adjutant General, Governor, military secretaries, and the President of the United States.
