CHICAGO — A federal appeals court on Thursday denied the Trump administration’s request to continue deploying National Guard troops in Illinois.
The move comes after U.S. District Judge April Perry issued a temporary restraining order (TRO) blocking federal troops from being stationed in the state, including at the Broadview ICE facility. The TRO remains in effect following the denial of the administration’s appeal.
Last week, National Guard troops were seen at the Broadview facility, walking around and remaining near the premises. The administration had argued the deployment was necessary to protect federal property and employees, but the judge found claims of a potential public rebellion to be not credible.
The case underscores ongoing legal challenges around federal troop deployments in domestic settings.
