The bill establishes the Kansas Military Affairs Commission as an advisory body to the governor, replacing the existing governor's military council. The commission will consist of 16 voting members, including the governor, the adjutant general, legislative leaders, and representatives from specific counties with active military installations. Notably, the bill adds two minority leaders as members and allows for the appointment of an active-duty military spouse and individuals with military expertise. The commission will also have 11 non-voting ex officio members from various military installations and educational institutions in Kansas.

Additionally, the bill outlines the commission's functions, which include providing recommendations on military-related issues, supporting military infrastructure, and enhancing the quality of life for military families in Kansas. The commission will meet quarterly and is empowered to advise the governor and other state entities on matters related to military presence and economic development. The executive director of the commission will be appointed by the governor and will oversee its operations, fostering cooperation between military installations and the community.
