ATLANTA – At the direction of Gov. Brian Kemp, the Georgia National Guard will deploy additional troops to the U.S. southern border to provide additional support to the Texas Guard in its mission to prevent the free flow of illegal migrants and threats to public safety from entering the country, known as Operation Lone Star.
This deployment follows Kemp’s trip to the border earlier this month — his fifth since taking office — where he was briefed by officials on the crisis and the ongoing efforts by multiple states to step in where the federal government is failing to act. Georgia has had the longest continuous presence of guardsmen on the southern border of any state, beginning in 2019 when Kemp took office.
