House Bill 3954 would clarify the limits on when and how the National Guard units could be deployed for federal service. If mobilization, for example, compromised the guard’s ability to respond to a disaster in Oregon, such as wildfires or earthquakes, that deployment would not be permitted.
Oregon lawmakers approve measure to limit National Guard deployment by the federal government

Gregg is a former Marine and Forest Service ranger. He's saved the lives of hikers dangling off a cliff or going through cardiac arrest, and he's bravely fought forest fires to save small rural towns.

100% of his salary is paid by WA state.

Elon fired him. Share his story.
