The decision to deploy over 4,200 guardsmen and 700 Marines to Southern California cost $71 million in food and other basic goods, $37 million for wages and salaries, $4 million in logistical supplies, $3.5 million in travel and $1.5 million demobilization costs, according to Newsom’s office.

Taxpayers are paying almost $120 million to cover President Donald Trump’s deployment of the California National Guard in Los Angeles, Gov. Gavin Newsom’s office said Thursday.

Governor Gavin Newsom said Thursday the activation of the National Guard members as well as Marines cost taxpayers about $118 million.
