A divided appeals court has temporarily halted a lower court's ruling that prevented President Trump from deploying 200 Oregon National Guard troops. The Justice Department's appeal was granted by a 9th Circuit panel, which indicated the president likely has the authority to federalize the troops. However, a second restraining order from Judge Karin Immergut remains in effect, preventing immediate troop deployment. Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield expressed concerns over the ruling granting the president unilateral power to deploy troops.
