Appeals court will reconsider whether to allow Trump to deploy National Guard to Oregon

The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals will reconsider Oregon's fight to block the Trump administration's deployment of National Guard troops into the state against its wishes

The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals will reconsider Oregon's fight to block the Trump administration's deployment of National Guard troops into the state against its wishes.

An appeals court panel ruled 2-1 this month to allow the deployment. The court said Tuesday it would hear the case “en banc,” meaning all active judges on the 9th Circuit will rehear it.

Circuit Judges Ryan Nelson and Bridget Bade, both Trump appointees, had initially voted to allow the deployment. Circuit Judge Susan Graber, a Clinton appointee, voted against it.

"Partisans who cheer this President’s use of troops to protect personnel who are enforcing federal immigration laws would do well to consider whether they would be equally pleased if a future President uses troops to protect personnel who are enforcing laws that they vehemently dislike," Graber wrote in her dissent.

U.S. District Judge Karin J. Immergut had issued two temporary restraining orders blocking the Trump administration from sending Oregon's — or any other state’s — National Guard onto the streets of Portland.
