Whereas, the State of Arizona strongly supports the continued operation of Luke Air Force Base, the Marine Corps Air Station Yuma and the Arizona Air National Guard's 162nd Fighter Wing as flight training facilities and pledges to continue to support Luke Air Force Base, the Marine Corps Air Station Yuma and the Arizona Air National Guard's 162nd Fighter Wing.
