The Pentagon has denied Washington, D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser’s second request to mobilize the National Guard to deal with an influx of illegal immigrants sent from southern border states after federal officials freed them.

Bowser, a Democrat, has now sent two letters to the White House and Pentagon asking for the Guard and describing the situation at the nation’s capital as a “humanitarian crisis.”
