Bullock, Brown won't commit National Guard on Trump's whimsy

The governor's full statement on Trump's plan: "The responsibility of sending Guard soldiers anywhere - overseas or to a forest fire - is one of the most difficult things I'm faced with and I'll never do it based simply on the whim of the President's morning Twitter habit." https://t.co/Cgtyr0zPP2

.@GovernorBullock is right: Montana is seeing more snow and the threat of flooding is very real. Sending assets to the border with Mexico is irresponsible. #mtpol #mtnews

If @realDonaldTrump asks me to deploy Oregon Guard troops to the Mexico border, I’ll say no. As Commander of Oregon’s Guard, I’m deeply troubled by Trump’s plan to militarize our border.
