Tennessee Governor Bill Lee has mobilized the Tennessee National Guard to help with immigration enforcement in the state.

This move comes in response to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s request for assistance.

The guardsmen will be helping with administrative and clerical duties at Immigration and Customs Enforcement processing facilities within the state.

The Governor has said many times, Tennessee stands ready to support President Trump’s efforts to secure our Nation’s borders and remove the most violent criminals from our streets.
