Some National Guard Troops Being Withdrawn From Chicago and Portland, Officials Say

  • On November 16, 2025, U.S. Northern Command began drawing down hundreds of National Guard soldiers from Chicago, Illinois, and Portland, Oregon, including all 200 California National Guard troops in Oregon.
  • Federal court rulings forced limits on deployments after U.S. District Judge Karin J. Immergut found President Donald Trump exceeded Title 10 of the U.S. Code authority earlier this month.
  • About 300 Illinois National Guard troops will stay activated while 200 Texas National Guard members return and only 100 Oregon National Guard remain on Title 10 orders.
  • U.S. Northern Command framed the move as a 'rightsizing' to establish a long-term presence, while Governor Gavin Newsom, Oregon Governor Tina Kotek, and Illinois Governor JB Pritzker responded amid the U.S. Supreme Court's additional briefing request.
  • With Thanksgiving and Christmas fast approaching, Pentagon officials decided last week to withdraw out-of-state soldiers due to holiday separation and costly limbo, maintaining a trimmed long-term presence amidst federal-state authority debates.
