Why join

A resolution starts in a drill hall and ends in Congress.

Any member can write one. It moves from the state conference, through Area II, to the national floor. Resolutions adopted there become the EANGUS legislative agenda.

That path is the whole point of the association. Pay, benefits, training, retirement. None of it changes on its own. It changes because a Guardsman put it in writing and enough people voted for it.
