Issue 41 | Spring 2023
As many already know, the NGAUS Resolution process is a yearlong and constant cycle of events. Task Force Chairs are currently working with committees right now to clean up standing resolutions prior to this year’s conference in Reno. States are currently processing resolutions they have received for consideration. Task Force Chairs have been identified and contact information is provided on the NGAUS website. Task Force meetings during the year offer the opportunity to meet directly with and brief uniformed military members on their product and services. Get engaged with the Task Force relevant to your business.
We are rapidly approaching the 01 Jul, 2023 deadline for submission of resolutions. States are assembling and submitting resolutions through the end of June, and it is critical to meet the NGAUS deadline.
Resolutions reported to NGAUS after the established deadline of July 1 and before July 31 may be considered as “emergency” resolutions but only if they represent true emergent conditions that did not exist at the time of the sponsoring state’s conference or arise from circumstances beyond the control of the sponsoring state. These circumstances may include military assignment, illness, injury, or family emergency of key personnel in the state’s resolution process, an act of God, or other unanticipated event preventing the timely processing or reporting of the resolution to NGAUS. The NGAUS Legislative Programs staff will determine on a case-by-case basis whether a resolution reported after July 1 represents a true emergency that, in view of all circumstances, could not have been reported by the July 1 deadline. Resolutions received after the July 31 deadline will not be considered.
