What’s in it

AI summary Iowa's National Guard and Civil Air Patrol cannot be sent into combat or dangerous service in another country unless the United States officially declares war to stop an invasion, end an uprising, or enforce federal laws. This rule does not stop the governor from sending troops to help with local emergencies or civil defense.1

Read the official explanation

This bill prohibits the national guard, the air national guard, and the civil air patrol from being released from this state into active combat or into hazardous service relating to an armed conflict in a foreign state unless the United States has officially declared war for the express purpose of repelling an invasion, suppressing an insurrection, or executing the laws of the United States. The bill does not limit the authority of the governor to consent to the deployment of troops for defense support of civil authorities. The bill makes legislative findings related to United States congressional abdication of powers to declare war.
