Trump Cancels Proposal to Send Federal Troops to Northern California
The US leader has scrapped plans for a deployment of government forces to the San Francisco Bay Area that had provoked broad criticism from California leaders and drawn activists gathering in the city centers.
Area Anxiety Over Reported Federal Operation
The locale had been anxious after news emerged that the leadership was poised to send approximately 150 border control and additional officers to the government installation in across the Bay, as part of a major border control operation.
Leadership Decision Following Conversations
However, the president announced he would not proceed with a “escalation” of national agents in the area after speaking with the local official, the mayor, and business figures including Marc Benioff and Jensen Huang.
“In that conversation, the national leader informed me explicitly that he was calling off every proposal for a national operation in this municipality,” Lurie commented in a release.
