Beginning July 1, 2026, Wyoming’s governor can organize and maintain the State Guard without first activating the National Guard for federal service. The law removes federal involvement and lets the governor decide what forces are needed and how they are armed, trained, and equipped. The guard can keep public peace, enforce state laws, respond to unrest, invasion, and emergencies in Wyoming, and support national wildland firefighting. It can also perform other duties the governor requires. Its governing rules follow Wyoming National Guard rules where practical. The governor must appoint a State Council of Defense to coordinate state defense activities. Members need no prior military service, and the governor can remove them under state law. The council can create branches and set rules for itself, the guard, and defense activities not otherwise covered by law. The governor’s office receives $25,000 from the general fund to appoint and convene the council and establish and equip the guard. This money is available through June 30, 2028, cannot be transferred or used for other purposes, and unused funds return as state law requires. The legislature intends this funding to stay out of the governor’s standard budget for the next fiscal biennium.
