Trump Scraps Proposal to Deploy Federal Troops to San Francisco Bay Area
The US leader has abandoned preparations for a deployment of federal troops to the San Francisco Bay Area that had sparked extensive opposition from California leaders and brought activists flooding into the city centers.
Local Concern Over Reported Federal Operation
The region had been concerned after reports circulated that the government was ready to send approximately 150 Customs and Border Protection and government personnel to the government installation in across the Bay, as part of a large-scale legal compliance operation.
Leadership Action Following Discussions
However, the national leader declared he would not advance with a “escalation” of national agents in the area after conversing with the local official, the mayor, and Silicon Valley leaders including Marc Benioff and Jensen Huang.
“In that conversation, the chief executive assured me directly that he was calling off any plans for a national operation in San Francisco,” the mayor stated in a statement.
