US EditionUS appeals court lets Trump send troops to Portland
The appeals court reversed a lower court's block, permitting Trump to federalize 200 Oregon National Guard troops amid protests at a federal immigration facility, a key legal win.
- On Monday, a 9th Circuit panel ruled that President Donald Trump can deploy the Oregon National Guard to Portland, lifting a lower court's block while litigation continues.
- The Trump administration argued the Guard was needed to protect an ICE facility after months of protests and cited assaults on federal officers, while City of Portland and State of Oregon officials said demonstrations were largely peaceful.
- U.S. District Judge Karin Immergut issued a temporary restraining order on Oct. 4 and extended it on Oct. 15, yet roughly 200 California Guard members were moved toward Oregon despite the block.
- The decision allows troops to protect federal property in Portland while litigation continues, but Oregon officials warned it grants the president near-unilateral power and urged vacating the majority order; the Trump administration has filed a Supreme Court appeal.
- Appeals courts have split over these deployments, with the 9th Circuit backing presidential judgments under Section 12406, Title 10, while the 7th Circuit blocked troops in Chicago.
