The Trump administration is sending 200 Marines to Florida to aid federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers, according to a statement by U.S. Northern Command.

The deployment is part of a broader push by the administration to ramp up deportations using active-duty troops. Earlier this year, President Donald Trump deployed some 4,000 National Guard personnel and 700 Marines to California under a law known as Title X, which allows troops to be used to protect federal property and personnel.
