Louisiana National Guard's New Orleans deployment extended six months for ongoing public safety support.
The Louisiana National Guard's deployment in New Orleans has been extended for six months, keeping about 120 soldiers in the city under federal Title 32 orders to support public safety.
The mission, which began in late December 2025, has aided law enforcement during major events including Mardi Gras, the Sugar Bowl, and New Year’s Eve, with up to 350 troops deployed during peak periods.
Officials, including Mayor Helena Moreno and Police Superintendent Anne Kirkpatrick, credited the Guard with enhancing security and helping position the city as a model for large-event safety.
The extension ensures continued support for upcoming festivals and daily operations, with federal funds covering costs and ongoing collaboration among state, local, and federal agencies.
