The trend toward politicizing the military is a dangerous one. Federal and state troops help maintain the freedoms on which the Republic stands, and misusing them creates a dissonance difficult to overcome. For these reasons, legal scholars and politicians alike have been calling for a tightening of the laws that govern when and how the military and National Guard and Reserves are federally deployed on U.S. soil.

MWEG continues to call on Congress to reaffirm its constitutional role to stop the politicization of the U.S. military and lead out in ensuring due process for individuals and restoring peace within U.S. cities.
