According to reports, National Guard troops will continue to be deployed in Washington D.C. through December 2026. The extension was announced by Trump officials.

An Army memo confirms that National Guard troops will remain on D.C. streets through 2026. The memo does not provide further details on the reasons behind the extension or any potential changes to the deployment.

Separately, reports from CNN and The Washington Post indicate that National Guard troops have been deployed in Washington D.C. since January 2021. These sources also confirm that the deployment has been extended through 2026.

Additionally, WJLA and KATV report that Arkansas National Guard units were recently deployed to Washington D.C. for a 90-day period. However, these reports do not indicate any changes to their deployment schedule.

The extension of National Guard troops in Washington D.C. is the latest development in the ongoing security measures in place to address concerns about public safety and national security.
