Judge halts National Guard occupation of Portland from any state

Source: Salem Statesman Journal

“U.S. District Court Judge Karin Immergut issued an order Oct. 5 barring any National Guard troops from any state from deploying to Portland to perform federal duties. The order comes after Oregon and the city of Portland filed a motion Oct. 5 asking the court to block the federalization of California National Guard troops in Portland. The U.S. military reassigned around 200 California National Guard troops to Portland after Immergut on Oct. 4 blocked the federal government’s deployment of 200 Oregon National Guard troop to Portland. Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield announced the move and amended lawsuit Oct. 5, which added California as a party in the suit.” (10/05/25)
