AMENDING TITLE 41, ARIZONA REVISED STATUTES, BY ADDING CHAPTER 40;
RELATING TO THE ARIZONA RANGERS.
Be it enacted by the Legislature of the State of Arizona:
Section 1. Title 41, Arizona Revised Statutes, is amended by adding
chapter 40, to read:
CHAPTER 40
ARIZONA RANGERS
ARTICLE 1. GENERAL PROVISIONS
41-4201. Arizona
rangers
THE ARIZONA RANGERS ARE AN UNPAID,
NONCOMMISSIONED CIVILIAN AUXILIARY THAT IS AVAILABLE FOR THE PURPOSES OF
ASSISTANCE TO AND SUPPORT FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT IN THIS STATE. THE ARIZONA
RANGERS DO NOT POSSESS ANY LAW ENFORCEMENT OR INVESTIGATIVE POWERS THAT
ARE NOT PROVIDED OR ESTABLISHED IN LAW FOR ALL CITIZENS OF THIS STATE.
LAW
ENFORCEMENT SUPPORT AND ASSISTANCE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON THE REQUEST
OF, AND UNDER THE DIRECTION, CONTROL AND SUPERVISION OF, ESTABLISHED LAW
ENFORCEMENT OFFICIALS OR OFFICERS.
Sec. 2. Purpose
The purpose of this act is to recognize the Arizona rangers, who
formed in 1901, disbanded in 1909 and reestablished in 1957 by original
Arizona rangers. The present day Arizona rangers are an unpaid, all
volunteer, law enforcement support and assistance civilian auxiliary in
this state. The present day Arizona rangers provide youth support and
community service and preserve the tradition, honor and history of the
1901-1909 Arizona rangers. The Arizona rangers, past and present, are a
most valuable and important part of the historical heritage of dedicated,
unselfish and honorable service to this state and the citizens of this
state.
