Sen. Wendy Rogers Champions The Defend The Guard Act (SB1495) 

Senator Wendy Rogers presented SB1495, the Defend the Guard Act, to the Arizona House Federalism, Military Affairs & Elections Committee, urging support for a bill that would block deployment of the Arizona National Guard into combat without a congressional declaration of war. Citing her military background and growing national support—including from Pete Hegseth, Tulsi Gabbard, and Rep. Paul Gosar—Rogers argued the bill is a constitutional check on federal overreach. She dismissed concerns over potential funding loss and called it a necessary stand to protect the Guard from being misused in undeclared wars.
