National Guard troops have been sent to Los Angeles after protests erupted over immigration arrests.
About 300 members of the California National Guard are currently in Los Angeles following two consecutive days of protests.
The demonstrations began on Friday after federal immigration agents arrested at least 44 people. The arrests are part of U.S. President Donald Trump’s broader crackdown on immigration, which has involved widespread raids and deportations across the country.
The National Guard, a reserve component of the U.S. military that typically operates at the state level, has now been mobilized in Los Angeles. Trump previously stated that protests hindering the enforcement of immigration laws “constitute a form of rebellion” against the U.S. government.
Under Title 10 of the U.S. Code, the president has the authority to federalize the National Guard—placing state troops on active duty—when there is “a rebellion or danger of a rebellion” against federal authority. Trump has invoked this power to send 2,000 National Guard members to the city.
According to the White House, the deployment is intended to “temporarily protect Immigration and Customs Enforcement and other United States Government personnel who are performing Federal actions.” The troops are expected to remain in place for 60 days, with the final decision resting with the U.S. Secretary of Defense.
Authorities say multiple people have been arrested in Los Angeles during efforts to crack down on demonstrators obstructing immigration enforcement operations.
