US EditionIllinois lawmaker welcomes possible Marine deployment after Supreme Court ruling
Republicans support deploying U.S. Marines to address Chicago's public safety amid debate over state policies and weekend death rates, following a Supreme Court ruling blocking National Guard deployment.
- In response to the court's decision, Adam Niemerg, state representative, R-Dietrich, urged President Donald Trump to use every tool to restore safety in Chicago, citing the Supreme Court's ruling on federal Guard deployment.

- The dispute raises questions about executive power, with supporters saying the ruling curbs President Donald Trump's overreach and federal forces could reshape safety for Chicago residents and families.
