Guard members out on the streets of Washington will continue to have uninterrupted benefits and pay for a mission that seems likely to persist for months, the official said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to talk to the media, said that while the extension doesn\u2019t mean that all 950 D.C. Guard troops now deployed will serve until the end of December, it is a strong indication that their role is not winding down anytime soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Typically, Guard members need to be on active orders for more than 30 days to qualify for benefits like a housing allowance or health care, and issuing multiple extensions to those orders can sometimes cause interruptions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">National Guard members from Republican-led states also have been sent to Washington. How long those troops, who number 1,334, remain in the nation\u2019s capital is up to their individual governors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"3472\" height=\"2315\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/AP25245642167745.jpg.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-109832\" srcset=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/AP25245642167745.jpg.jpg 3472w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/AP25245642167745.jpg.jpg?resize=300,200 300w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/AP25245642167745.jpg.jpg?resize=768,512 768w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/AP25245642167745.jpg.jpg?resize=1024,683 1024w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/AP25245642167745.jpg.jpg?resize=1536,1024 1536w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/AP25245642167745.jpg.jpg?resize=2048,1366 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 3472px) 100vw, 3472px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Members of the District of Columbia National Guard patrol Union Station, Tuesday, Sept. 2, 2025, in Washington.

In response to questions, a White House official said Trump was committed to the long-term safety and security of Washington.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The National Guard official said leaders also are expected to begin putting out policies on leave and time off for deployed troops \u2014 another sign that military leaders expect the deployment to go on for a longer period of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The task force acknowledged Monday that it was \u201caware of concerns regarding pay and benefits for members of Joint Task Force-District of Columbia.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhile exceptions exist, the majority of service members are mobilized on orders extending beyond 30 days, ensuring they qualify for full benefits,\u201d the task force said in a statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CNN was first to report the D.C.
