WASHINGTON, D.C.---Starting next month, the Trump Administration plans to deploy 1,700 National Guard troops to assist ICE officials in 19 states.

"ICE is overwhelmed," Homan said. "We got almost 700,000 illegal aliens with a criminal history that we're trying to find, so the National Guard: they're a support function; they're a force multiplier."

Homan said the troops will help ICE with transportation and intel, but will not make arrests. State Rep. Ed Delaney (D-Indianapolis) called the move a “show of force” and a way for the Trump Administration to distract from lower-than-anticipated deportation numbers.

"I think the federal government is literally out of control," DeLaney said. "The governor has the option of saying we won't participate. I hope the guy, he won't participate."
