National Guard to remain in DC until 2029
National Guard troops have been deployed in Washington, DC, since August 2025 to address crime and maintain order, with over 4,600 currently on patrol. President Trump extended the deployment until January 2029 at an estimated cost of more than $1.4 billion, aiming to reduce crime and protect key areas such as monuments, transportation hubs, and federal buildings. The deployment has received mixed reactions, with some residents feeling threatened and lawmakers opposing it, while others support the effort. The Guard's presence has included assistance in medical emergencies, crime prevention, and protective duties, with some personnel facing violence during their deployment.
