I am unclear on this. I think the Feds and the state declared martial law - usually it is just the state and the last time the Feds did it was Pearl Harbor. I think there are some NG soldiers there as one was shot. I think the focus is, according to the Pres. and all relevant parties, is rescusing the stranded people before they die. I guess they cannot multi task.
