AB 41 Nevada Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Revises provisions relating to the state militia. (BDR 36-267)

AB 41 revises Nevada's state militia leadership structure by eliminating the "Chief of Staff for Army" and "Chief of Staff for Air" titles. It replaces these roles with a new "Deputy Adjutant General" position, appointable from either the Army or Air National Guard, while updating the Governor's military staff to include this role. The bill also removes the requirement for Assistant Adjutants General to serve as Chiefs of Staff and clarifies eligibility (federally recognized colonel or higher with 4+ years service). This directly affects the Nevada National Guard's internal leadership appointments and succession procedures. The changes take effect July 1, 2025.
