technical correction; national guard
HCR 2019 proposes a technical constitutional amendment to rename Arizona's "organized militia" as "The National Guard of Arizona" in Article XVI, Section 2 of the Arizona Constitution. This change would update the official designation of the state's military force but does not alter any existing laws, policies, or responsibilities. The amendment requires voter approval at the next general election and must be submitted by the Secretary of State. It is purely a naming correction with no new provisions or direct impact on citizens or programs.
