Los Angeles; Washington, D.C.; Chicago; and Memphis.&nbsp; In the letter, the Senators underscore the illegality of the domestic troop deployments, which undermine military readiness and politicize the nation\u2019s military.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cThe military\u2019s expanded use to support immigration operations and domestic law enforcement activities at home is fundamentally un-Constitutional, dangerous for American civil rights, and risks straining military readiness and resources, weakening troop morale, undermining recruitment and retention, and eroding public trust in the military,\u201d<strong> the senators wrote in their letter to the U.S. Department of Defense Acting Inspector General Steven Stebbins.<\/strong>\u00a0 \u201cNeither the active-duty military nor the National Guard are intended or trained at scale for the purposes that the Administration has claimed they are used for, including \u2018crime-fighting\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cWe urgently request that you initiate an inquiry into the cumulative effects of these domestic deployments of U.S. active-duty troops and the National Guard\u2014over the objections of state and local officials\u2014on military readiness, resources, personnel, and our military as an institution,\u201d<strong> escribieron los senadores.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>The senators made clear that pulling National Guard troops away from their assigned duties to assist in law enforcement operations erodes public trust; diverts critical resources from communities in need, including those impacted by natural disasters; and costs American taxpayers millions of dollars.&nbsp; As the senators note, the Pentagon has estimated the deployment of National Guard troops and Marines to Los Angeles costs approximately $170 million for a 60-day deployment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cWhen military and Guard units are pulled away from scheduled training or mission preparation, the consequences extend beyond individual units and erode operational strength across the force, leaving the military less prepared for overseas operations and crisis response.\u00a0 The Guard\u2019s unique role as both a state and federal force makes it particularly vulnerable to strain, which could impact the ability of the Guard to protect and save local communities during natural disasters at home,\u201d <strong>escribieron los senadores. <\/strong>\u00a0\u201cService members commit to service with the understanding that their sacrifices will aid communities in times of disaster and defend our nation overseas.\u00a0 They are not trained nor prepared to act as a domestic police force.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>The Senators laid out the illegality of using the nation\u2019s military as civilian law enforcement under the Posse Comitatus Act.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cThese domestic deployments also risk normalizing military involvement in contentious civilian law enforcement, which apart from being deeply contrary to the Constitution, raises serious concerns about the apolitical character of our armed forces and compliance with the Posse Comitatus Act.\u00a0 The Posse Comitatus Act reflects the founding principle\u2014reflected in the Third, Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Amendments\u2014that separating civilian law enforcement from the military protects both individual liberties and states\u2019 rights,\u201d <strong>continuaron los senadores.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSeveral federal courts have found no credible evidence that the Administration\u2019s use of the military in this way is justified, finding that conditions on the ground have not reached the high threshold of crisis that merits such a militarized response, especially over the objection of local officials. \u00a0 Further, the Trump Administration\u2019s unprecedented deployment of out-of-state Guard personnel into a non-consenting jurisdiction is a significant overreach of executive power,\u201d <strong>escribieron los senadores.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The senators concluded their letter by reiterating their call for an inquiry into the domestic deployments of troops to American cities, requesting a report from the inspector general by November 21, 2025.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The letter was led by Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin, D-Ill., Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and U.S. Senators Jack Reed, D-R.I., Chris Coons, D-Del., and Tammy Duckworth, D-Ill. In addition to Wyden and Merkley, the letter was also signed by U.S. Senators Mazie Hirono, D-Hawaii, Patty Murray, D-Wash., Adam Schiff, D-Calif., Alex Padilla, D-Calif., Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., Angela D.
