A Guide to Directors of Homeland Security, Emergency Management, and Military Departments in the States and Territories of the United States A GUIDE TO DIRECTORS OF HOMELAND SECURITY, EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT, AND MILITARY DEPARTMENTS IN THE STATES AND TERRITORIES OF THE UNITED STATES A Report Prepared by the Federal Research Division, Library of Congress under an Interagency Agreement with the Commission on the National Guard and Reserves December 2007 Researchers: Alice R. Buchalter Patrick Miller Project Manager: Alice R. Buchalter Federal Research Division Library of Congress Washington, D.C. 20540−4840 Tel: 202−707−3900 Fax: 202−707−3920 E-Mail: [email protected] Homepage: http://www.loc.gov/rr/frd/ p 59 Years of Service to the Federal Government p 1948 – 2007 Library of Congress – Federal Research Division Guide to State Directors PREFACE This report provides, for each of the 54 states and territories, the identity and responsibilities of the directors of the following offices: state emergency management agency; state homeland security agency; and state adjutant general and/or military department. In states where the functions of homeland security and emergency management are combined, this is so indicated. The report also enumerates the qualifications necessary for the director position and indicates the statutory or regulatory authority under which the position exists. For each state, the researchers have retained the language used in the respective state codes and/or statutes. The authors of this report researched three primary online sources: state codes and statutes; executive orders; and Web sites of the respective agencies. In instances where laws could not be identified online, the resources of the Law Library of Congress were used. Finally, for those states/territories that did not provide the requisite information online, the researchers telephoned the relevant homeland security or emergency management office. i Library of

  • The Police: Roles and Responsibilities in Good Security
    SSR BACKGROUNDER The Police Roles and responsibilities in good security sector governance About this series The SSR Backgrounders provide concise introductions to topics and concepts in good security sector governance (SSG) and security sector reform (SSR). The series summarizes current debates, explains key terms and exposes central tensions based on a broad range of international experiences. The SSR Backgrounders do not promote specific models, policies or proposals for good governance or reform but do provide further resources that will allow readers to extend their knowledge on each topic. The SSR Backgrounders are a resource for security governance and reform stakeholders seeking to understand but also to critically assess current approaches to good SSG and SSR. About this SSR Backgrounder This SSR Backgrounder is about the roles and responsibilities of police in good security sector governance (SSG). Because of their special powers and their proximity to the population, how the police do their work directly affects the security of individuals and communities on a daily basis, as well as the democratic character of the state itself. Although police organizations differ in every country, this SSR Backgrounder explains how the same principles of good SSG and democratic policing can be adapted to every context. This SSR Backgrounder answers the following questions: What are the police? Page 2 What are typical features of effective policing? Page 3 How does democratic policing contribute to good SSG?

  • Kentucky Law Protects National Guard Members on State Active Duty
    KY-2015-NG (Updated April 2018) Kentucky Law Protects National Guard Members On State Active Duty By Austin M. Giesel1 Under certain circumstances, members of the Army or Air National Guard can be called up for state active duty by the Governor of Kentucky or by another state governor. Kentucky law prohibits employment discrimination against members of the Kentucky National Guard2 or Kentucky active militia3 in Kentucky Revised Statutes (KRS) section 38.460 (1), which states: (1) No person shall, either by himself or with another, willfully deprive a member of the Kentucky National Guard or Kentucky active militia of his employment or prevent his being employed or in any way obstruct a member of the Kentucky National Guard or Kentucky active militia in the conduct of his trade, business, or profession or by threats of violence prevent any person from enlisting in the Kentucky National Guard or Kentucky active militia. Emphasis supplied. KRS section 38.238 provides further clarification of the employment rights by stating that: An employee shall be granted a leave of absence by his employer for the period required to perform active duty or training in the National Guard. Upon the employee's release from a period of active duty or training, he shall be permitted to return to his former position of employment with the seniority, status, pay or any other rights or benefits he would have had if he had not been absent, except that no employer shall be required to grant an employee a leave of absence with pay. This section provides for full reinstatement to a service member’s former position, akin to the protections provided by the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA).4 1 Austin Giesel is one of two summer associates at the Service Members Law Center in the summer of 2014.
