There are currently a little over 2,500 National Guard troops deployed in D.C.
from dozens of states.
This summer, there will be 5,000.
Officials did not specify when that surge will begin or notably when it will end.
The number of troops in D.C.
started at 800 last August as part of an initiative by President Trump to crack down on crime and also immigration.
More troops have slowly been added over time.
National Guard members in D.C.
have been supporting law enforcement through highly visible patrols in neighborhoods, parks, and metro stations.
The D.C.
deployment costs about $1.5 million a day, according to an estimate by the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office.
This new surge would essentially double that cost.

Iran reversed course Saturday after announcing Friday that it would open the strait for commercial vessels during its ceasefire with the U.S.
and Israel.
It accused the U.S.
of violating the deal.
Iran's military said that control of the strait has, quote, returned to its previous state under strict management and control of the armed forces.
It said it would remain this way as long as the U.S.
blockade on Iranian ports continued.
