- Washington, D.C., Mayor Muriel Bowser has raised concerns about the legality of deploying the National Guard for policing on U.S. soil.
- Her skepticism centers on the federal government’s decision to send National Guard units to various cities across the nation.
- Bowser’s primary question is whether the federal deployment aligns with legal frameworks governing military involvement in domestic law enforcement.
- The issue highlights the tension between state and federal authority, particularly in the deployment of military resources for internal security.
- The situation prompts a broader discussion about the role and limits of the National Guard in civilian policing activities.
- Bowser’s comments thus open up a dialogue about the balance between national security and citizens’ rights on U.S. soil.
