## Resource

Hawaii’s governor is under pressure to bring home 27 National Guard members deployed to D.C. for America 250 events, as local and national groups argue the move diverts critical resources from hurricane preparedness and violates the Guard’s non-partisan mission. While the commander claims the small deployment won’t impact local readiness, advocates warn even short-term absences weaken disaster response capabilities. Some troops were reportedly reassigned to anti-crime operations — a shift from their original mission — prompting other states to recall their forces. With major America 250 events already over and no emergency in D.C., critics urge Governor Green to act before the troops’ deployment extends into September.
