Alaska Guard Members' ICE Role Sparks Legal Debate

Alaska lawmakers question National Guards role with ICE - Senator Bill Wielechowski raises concerns about five Alaska National Guard members working for ICE, potentially violating the Posse Comitatus Act. Representative Andrew Gray disagrees, stating their duties fall under Title Thirty-Two, keeping them under state control. The Brennan Center for Justice describes this as a loophole allowing Guard troops to receive federal funding and perform missions while avoiding Posse Comitatus Act restrictions.
