Oregon National Guard

The measure passed the House and now heads to the Senate.

The decision leaves in place a permanent injunction from November that blocked troops from deploying to Portland.

The potential scenarios the legislation could lead to involve armed conflict between different troops or court challenges, according to legislative counsel.

The troops were part of the Trump administration’s plan to support immigration enforcement operations.

Oregon military officials say that National Guard members remain deployed as of Wednesday.

As President Donald Trump’s legal fight to deploy the National Guard in Portland enters its third month, the blistering pace of emergency motions and expedited hearings has slowed — at least for now. Here's where things stand.

Earlier on Wednesday, Gov. Tina Kotek announced the Oregon guard troops would be demobilized. The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals put that on pause just over an hour later.

The Trump administration asked a federal appeals court late Sunday to immediately place a hold on a court ruling preventing the president from sending National Guard troops to Portland.

Federal lawyers are asking an appeals court to reverse a recent decision in District Court in Oregon that blocked Trump’s deployment.

In her ruling, U.S. District Court Judge Karin Immergut found President Trump “did not have a lawful basis to federalize the National Guard.”

In her 16-page order granting the preliminary injunction, U.S. District Court Judge Karin Immergut said she needed more time to go through the case. The block now goes until 5 p.m. on Nov. 7.

Attorneys returned to court in Portland Thursday as U.S. District Court Judge Karin Immergut hears further arguments over the legality of domestic military deployment to Portland.
