Troops to support security operations during the remainder of Trump's presidency
Pentagon to Keep National Guard in Washington Through 2029
The Pentagon plans to keep National Guard troops on a federal mission in Washington, D.C., through January 20, 2029, covering the rest of President Trump’s second term.
The plan is in its final stages and only needs approval from Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.

If approved, troops will remain in the capital to support security and ongoing operations until the end of the current presidency.
Typically, federal Guard deployments in the capital are temporary, tied to major events or security threats. Extending it through 2029 would be unprecedented.
