House Republicans demand explanation from Pelosi on extended deployment of National Guard in D.C.
Fox News
Rep. Lisa McClain is calling on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to brief members of Congress on why National Guard troops may remain in Washington, D.C., until the fall.
"It’s amazing to me that [Pelosi] can do this without any disclosure, without any information and just continue to spend money with no briefing," she added. "Doesn’t make sense to me." Approximately 25,000 National Guard troops were deployed to Washington ahead of President Joe Biden’s January 20 inauguration, and 5,000 were expected to remain until mid-March. Fox affiliate WTTG obtained an email showing troops may be kept in the region until the fall.More Related News
