Oregon sues Trump administration over deployment of National Guard troops to Portland

Oregon and Portland are suing the Trump administration to halt the deployment of National Guard troops to the city. State officials argue the federal government lacks the authority for such intervention and that local crime statistics do not warrant it. The lawsuit claims the deployment violates the 10th Amendment and federal law. The White House maintains the action is lawful and intended to enhance safety. This legal challenge follows similar controversies in other cities where the administration considered or deployed federal forces.
