A federal judge on Oct. 15 extended her order preventing President Donald Trump from deploying members of the Oregon National Guard to protect Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facilities in Portland.

Responding to a lawsuit filed by Oregon, Judge Karin J. Immergut of the U.S. District Court for the District of Oregon had issued a temporary restraining order on Oct. 4 directing the Trump administration not to deploy federalized National Guard troops to Oregon.
