## Summary

**Would create a limited, time‑bound federal authority to deploy the Armed Forces domestically when state or federal authorities are overwhelmed.** It frames military deployment as a last resort and ties action to narrow triggers and strict procedures. - State residents and officials: Military action would be allowed only when one or more narrow triggers exist, such as insurrection, widespread domestic violence, or specific obstruction of the law. Some triggers require a State chief executive request or a supermajority of a State legislature. - Presidential and military operations: The President would be able to order active duty forces and reservists to suppress insurrection, quell domestic violence, or enforce laws, but forces must operate under the Standing Rules for the Use of Force and may not suspend habeas corpus. The President must issue a proclamation and provide contemporaneous written reports and certifications, including from the Attorney General, before acting. - Congress and courts: Authority would terminate after 7 days unless Congress enacts a joint resolution to extend for 14 days, and further renewals would need additional congressional action or a material change in facts. Individuals and entities could seek expedited judicial review under a substantial‑evidence standard.
