Trump Scraps Plans to Send Federal Troops to Bay Region
The President has scrapped preparations for a deployment of national agents to the San Francisco Bay Area that had provoked widespread condemnation from state officials and brought demonstrators flooding into the public areas.
Local Anxiety Over Possible National Presence
The locale had been anxious after information surfaced that the leadership was poised to send over a hundred CBP and other federal agents to the US Coast Guard base in Alameda, as part of a major border control operation.
Presidential Decision Following Discussions
However, the president announced he would not advance with a “surge” of federal forces in the area after conversing with the mayor, Daniel Lurie, and business leaders including Salesforce CEO and Nvidia chief.
“In that conversation, the chief executive assured me clearly that he was canceling all arrangements for a government dispatch in San Francisco,” Lurie said in a announcement.
