Legal showdowns underway for Oregon and Illinois as National Guard troops deploy in Chicago area
Where things stand now
• Courtroom showdowns: We’re watching two key legal battles that could determine the fate of President Donald Trump’s National Guard deployments in Portland and Chicago. Today’s hearing over the Oregon deployment has concluded and the case remains under consideration. Arguments are ongoing in today’s hearing in Illinois.
• The big picture: The cases could potentially set precedents for future federal intervention in local law enforcement. City and state leaders contend that Trump is exceeding his authority and his deployments should be blocked.
• What’s happening on the ground: Texas guardsmen have started their mission of protecting ICE and other federal personnel in the greater Chicago area, according to the military. National Guard troops remain blocked by several court orders from deploying in Oregon.
• Anti-ICE protests: Ongoing demonstrations outside ICE facilities in Portland and the Chicago suburb of Broadview have served as a flashpoint for Trump’s crackdown. The administration says troops are needed to quell unrest in what it describes as violence-ridden Democratic-led cities.
