TL;DR

New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu is seeking $850,000 from the state's fiscal committee to deploy up to 15 volunteer members of the National Guard to the southern border in Texas for 90 days, citing a "civil emergency" and the need to protect New Hampshire citizens. Sununu's move is in response to what he sees as the federal government's inaction at the border, and he has been joined by 13 other Republican governors in this effort.
