US EditionAppeals Court Pauses Orders Restricting Federal Officers’ Use of Tear Gas at Portland ICE Building
The 9th Circuit halted lower court bans on tear gas use near Portland ICE, with two Trump-appointed judges in majority and Biden appointee dissenting, pending April 7 hearing.
- On Wednesday, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals temporarily blocked lower court rulings that restricted federal agents from using tear gas and crowd-control methods at the Portland Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility.
- Earlier this month, federal judges in Oregon issued preliminary injunctions after lawsuits from the ACLU of Oregon and residents of Gray's Landing alleged that federal officers' use of chemical munitions violated their rights.
- In a 2-1 decision, the three-judge panel sided with the Trump administration, while the Department of Homeland Security maintains it is authorized to take necessary actions to diffuse violence against officers.
- Kelly Simon, ACLU of Oregon's legal director, expressed disappointment that the appeals court paused the injunction before hearing from clients, adding, "We look forward to discussing the law and facts with the court.
