Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger agreed Thursday to send the California National Guard to the Mexican border, ending a 17-day standoff with the Bush administration over whether the state's troops would join the border patrol effort and who would pay for it, administration officials said.

Schwarzenegger scheduled a 2 p.m. press conference to announce that he intends to sign a two-page document, effectively promising to carry out the state's share of Bush's planned mobilization of 6,000 troops, part of the president's plan to solve the nation's illegal immigration dilemma.

I thought we all could use a little more good news around here.
