Brewer signs bill authorizing volunteer state militia

 .

Gov. Jan Brewer has signed a bill creating a state militia that she could deploy at any time, and for any reason.

The bill, SB1495, creates a volunteer state militia, separate and apart from the National Guard.

Rep. Jack Harper, R-Surprise, who sponsored a near identical House bill, said this type of legislation couldn’t have come at a better time.

Harper, who has previously said the governor would not be required to establish a state militia and who called the new state guard a “safety net” for the governor, said he thinks Gov. Brewer should call a militia to action right away.

“I’m very excited that she signed it, of course,” he said. “With the national funding for the National Guard on the border expiring in June, I would like to see the governor sign an executive order that immediately establishes the guard.”

Harper said he consulted several times with Maj. Gen. Hugo Salazar, the Arizona National Guard’s adjutant general, about how he would be able to utilize a volunteer militia if it were to be established and deployed to the U.S.-Mexico border. He called those conversations encouraging.

The new state militia does not have a command structure defined, and Harper said the governor could put anyone in charge of the group.

“That’s not spelled out in the legislation,” Harper said.

Aside from potentially being deployed to the border, Harper said the new state guard could be used in the case of nuclear, biological or chemical attacks, or if there were a radiological leak at a nuclear power plant.

“Decontamination is vital in that scenario,” Harper said. “And the volunteer force could augment first responders in that case.”

    Way to go, Gov. Brewer! AZ is leading the nation in setting the right example and I only wish CA would have the guts to follow. But it will take the mass exodus of people like myself (law abiding, tax-paying, high earners) and more corporations for the state to wake up. Keep up the great work! I wish you were my Governor.

  2. Jon Says:

    Good job Arizona! I have been pushing this for a long time. And now hopefully we can merge all of our state’s citizen militias into just one. I am member of the Arizona Citizen’s Defense Force. Proud to keep serving my country, and proud to serve my state.

  3. Ricky Says:

    I still think that the Militias should be at the county level. The governor should have authority to mobilize, but if we are to keep to the tradition and constitution, the militia must not have to sign any official contracts of enlistment.

  4. Ricky Says:

    State Militias under state authority, but not the Fed is a good thing. But even during the revolutionary war, militiamen were county level based, and never signed enlistment contracts. There should be not enlistments here too. They at most should fill out an application just like all our volunteer firefighters do.

  5. waypasthadenough Says:

    That’d be a good way to get rid of them, send them into an NBC disaster site with a bottle of Mr. Clean and a roll of Brawny.

    The Militias should have one purpose: Protect what little Liberty we have left and fight to re-establish the Liberty that has been lost. The real ‘terrorists’ were all born here, most have white skin and probably draw a government paycheck or work for or fund some commie front group.

    The National Guard is funded by the Federal Government and their weapons are kept in Federal Armories and issued by the U.S. Army. It’s a matter of time until these state government ‘state militias’ are treated the same way.

    We must pass amendments to the U.S. and state constitutions that clarify the militias are ‘the people’ with their own weapons that can be purchased at the local hardware store and their purpose is the maintenance of Liberty to the point of having at least arrest powers over commie/fascist/authoritarian politicians who introduce Liberty eroding legislation. They should have the power to drag the garbage from the state house or U.S. Congress, give them a quick treason trial and hang them from the official gallows out front.

  6. Mel Says:

    This is dangerous…..and are we taxpayers going to be footing the bill? Membership to exclude anyone but white supremacists? And how is this
    going to create jobs, maintain laws and how do we stop a bunch of zealots
    running rampant?

  7. Daniel Says:

    The term “volunteer” does not sound like a paying job, so if we are to provide our own weapons, ammunition and gear then “we the people” will not be footing the bill but we as individuals we be footing our own bill.

  8. Jack Says:

    Title 32 of the US Code authorizes states to create State Defense Forces should they choose to do so. Under Title 32 of the USC, those State Defense Forces, or “SDFs”, *cannot* be forced into federal service. Unlike the National Guard forces, SDFs are intended to remain within the boundaries of their own state, and to remain under the exclusive command and control of each state’s Governor.

    Title 32 State Defense Forces already exist in 23 states (plus the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico). Those states that have activated their State Defense Forces include California, New Mexico, and Texas. The fact is, Arizona is the only southern border state that does *not* have an active State Defense Force.

    Our group aims to correct that situtation. With your help, we can make it happen.

    @ Mel … Militias were key in The Revolutionary War so while you utilize your free speech, which militia men helped create, I’ll make use of mine:

    Just because someone wants our government to uphold the laws on the books, to have secure borders, doesn’t mean they are creating a ” Membership to exclude anyone but white supremacists … ” Fear mongering is not a valid rhetorical perspective in a true discussion.

    This is a good idea but the unit needs to have a military command structure otherwise it is just a disorganized group going every which way without a definite objective.

  14. Ellar Says:

    It is constitutionally ignorant citizens like Mel that have voted in the current Congressional mess over the past two generations. The Constitution protects the already existing ‘citizens militia’ whose purpose is defense and making sure our laws are followed. There was no amendment ridding our country of the ‘unorganized citizen militia’ that is made up of able men providing their own arms. Brewer doesn’t need a law….it’s already part of the Constitution, she just needs to call them up. They pick their commanding officers and the commanding officers are the direct link to the governor. It’s about time she is doing this….but I am disappointed she didn’t use her already existing power to call up the militia.

  15. Frank Henry Says:

    Has any one read SB 1495 ???…

    1. It does not “authorize volunteer state militia” !!! The state militia/guard
    already exist under existing state law.

    2. This new bill “seems” to give “sole power” to the governor to use the
    militia as he/she sees as an emergency.

    I hope I miss read the bill.

  20. JT Ready Says:

    While I support the notion of a state militia as well as other volunteer groups, the prudent leadership we need from Governor Jan Brewer in this time of crisis is to first declare a state of emergency and activate the AZ National Guard to the border immediately. She is the Commander In Chief of our National Guard. Not President Obama who is primarily responsible for the activation of federal troops. I find it politically duplicitous that partisan politics are getting in the way of national and state security, as well as humanitarian considerations in the hostile border region of our international/state border with Mexico.

  21. Bushmaster Says:

    Well I kind of like the idea, but now all the militia’s will have to work together.
    I don’t trust anything gobement does but I go there anyway and help out now. I just hope she gives us more power to really do some good and capture and chase after those whom try to escape and arrest them.
    Maybe we will be able to work with the rangers and BP and sheriffs much closer and not have to worry about them getting into trouble doing so. Intel works both ways we have found at least while I was there but there hands are tied maybe ours won’t be.:)

    Wake up people we have been out there for years some of us and some just starting to go there and help from other states as myself. I just hope they will still allow us to come and help as we have been doing.

    Outstanding, the underlining best part of this bill is it side tracks the Obamanation addenda. Giving AZ the ability to defend it borders and stop the illegals and most importantly the drug traffic that comes across her lines. Biggest threat to the citizens is the drug cartels. Having the ability to not rely on the Feds to “help” and being able to tell them to stuff their warm and fuzzy policies is perfect.

    So much stupidity spread among so few comments. Twenty-two other states already have volunteer defense forces. Those of you bird-brains who worry about who’s paying the bill overlook the fact that all existing state defense forces are funded out-of-pocket by the volunteer members.

    Those who think this group will end up as some sort of hee-haw redneck posse need to re-examine your own prejudices.

    Meanwhile, it wouldn’t hurt for all of you to read the recent article by the Heritage Foundation about state defense forces, before publicly making fools of yourselves here.

    This is an excellent idea provided it is “a well regulated militia”. Volunteers are the backbone of this country and a state sponsored program like this has the potential of saving tax payers $ billions. You could look at it more like a state wide neighborhood watch. Again if this is to be an armed militia, strict oversight must be in place.

    I’m thinking that conservatives need to vote with their feet and abandon the liberal sinking ship states, like CA, and move en masse to purple states that can still be saved.

    Abandon ship! The liberal states are set, and we can hardly hope to change them, but moving to other states can be their coup de gras, can gain the conservatives more strength in the House and Senate, as well as the general Presidential election, and can regain yourself some refreshing freedoms in the process. If there were ever some effective campaign money to be spent, it would be to help pay for strategic, conservative population shifts.

    Why are we assuming that this is a trust-worthy “militia”? Is it the same kind of militia that the constitution is referring to? If it’s set up and funded by anyone in our government, I question it. “She can deploy them anytime, for any reason”? What if she thinks you’re a “terrorist” by the same standards that our administration does? Just because they use the term/name “militia”, doesn’t make it automatically a constitutional one…will she deploy them when and if there is civil unrest (rightly so) in the streets due to a financial collapse and if so, would that be justifiable or will she demand that this militia march to the streets and doorsteps of our politicians in Wash. D.C.?

  81. Kenn Ward Says:

    Has no one read the Constitution or the Laws surrounding militias?

    Constitution – Article II – The Executive Branch Section 2 – Clause 1:The President shall be Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the Militia of the several States when called into the actual service of the United States. [Article 2,Section 2 of the US Constitution]…

    The reserve militia or unorganized militia, which is presently defined by the Militia Act of 1903 to consist of every able-bodied man of at least 17 and under 45 years of age who is not a member of the National Guard or Naval Militia.(That is, anyone who would be eligible for a draft.) Former members of the armed forces up to age 65 are also considered part of the “unorganized militia” per Sec 313 Title 32 of the US Code.

    To restate this if you are between 17 & 45 or a veteran less that 65 you are in the Federal Militia. You can be called up for service at any time to defend our country. Get used to the idea it has been this way since 1789 when the constitution was ratified. The law of 1903 clarifies this and was the establishment of the National Guard. If you do not like it as I have heard; you can start a campaign to amend the constitution to remove this clause or contact the Congress and Senate to repeal the 1903 law. It is your right to do this.
