NOTICE Act

The NOTICE Act (S 3449) requires the President to notify Congress within 24 hours before deploying National Guard members into federal service under specific circumstances (like invasions, rebellions, or law enforcement failures). The notification must detail the exact reason for deployment, location, duration, unit training, and command structure. For deployments lasting over 48 hours, the President must provide written updates every 72 hours with specific details on ongoing conditions. This bill directly affects the President’s authority to deploy National Guard forces and enhances congressional oversight of such actions.
