By September’s end, Russia had begun losing territory held in occupied Ukraine, and Russian troops cited supply shortages as a critical reason.

"The President has made it clear: we must pay our troops," the bill's author, Republican congresswoman Jen Kiggans, posted on X.

She said the same reasoning held for Sunday’s order, which came after the administration sent to Oregon 200 California National Guard troops that were under its command.

Guard troops normally serve under the command of state governors unless federalized for national emergencies.

Northern Command said the troops in Illinois will be tasked with protecting federal workers and property.
