The US government has changed the duty status of approximately 1,700 military personnel, placing them under state governor command to support immigration law enforcement. The Pentagon says that most of the troops involved were previously active in the mission, while an additional 500 have now joined. Officials state that this move will enhance coordination with ICE and improve overall support for border operations amid ongoing political debates about federal versus state authority.
