A federal appeals court ruled on Wednesday that the Oregon National Guard can remain under the Trump administration‘s control.

The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals issued the ruling, rebuking the efforts of Gov. Tina Kotek (D-OR), who sought to prohibit her state’s National Guard troops from being placed under the authority of President Donald Trump. However, the court’s decision was not a total loss for Kotek, as it also ruled that troops were not yet allowed to be deployed to Portland, Oregon. The president desired to have troops assist with protecting Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers from violent protesters and in crime prevention efforts.
