"The president raised eyebrows a couple months ago when he said he regretted not deploying the National Guard during the 2020 election, which has caused considerable anxiety around the country."
"The National Guard obviously always follows Constitution, law, policy, guidance, both at the federal and state level, and has been utilized by governors due to Covid-19."
"Guardsmen had in multiple states done things in administration, logistics, cyber but they were always in civilian clothes, to my knowledge, and they were always in support."
"The National Guard is always going to follow the law, the Constitution, and all policy, and guidance, and we are there to increase public trust."
Rep. Joe Morelle expressed concerns regarding the potential deployment of the National Guard to polling places during the midterm elections. He highlighted anxiety among millions of Americans following President Trump's previous comments about regretting not deploying troops during the 2020 election. Gen. Steven Nordhaus assured that the National Guard adheres to constitutional law and policy, emphasizing their role in supporting state polling stations while maintaining public trust and ensuring citizens can vote normally.
