Stop Trump’s Abuse of Power Act
HR 4264, the "Stop Trump’s Abuse of Power Act," amends federal law to restrict the President's authority to deploy active-duty military forces for domestic law enforcement. Specifically, it adds new provisions to Sections 252 and 253 of Title 10, U.S. Code, stating that the President cannot deploy military personnel to respond to peaceful protests or demonstrations within a state or territory unless requested by the state's governor or chief executive. This directly affects the President’s military deployment powers and requires state leadership approval for such actions during non-violent gatherings. The bill aims to prevent federal military intervention in state-level protests without local government authorization.
