Montana Command Authority Bill Raises Founding Intent Militia Concerns

 

Without a state defense force, if there is any conflict in orders to the adjutant general from the governor and from the Department of Defense, the DoD will prevail.  The adjutant general and all those in his command, including the unorganized militia, are required to ultimately serve the Pentagon. Now recall who requested HB 31. [More]

The Founders considered the Militia to be necessary for the security of a free State for a reason. Being willing to make a simple fix will tell us if the potential negative consequences of the bill were intended or unintended.
