Court cases challenging National Guard troops around the country remain in legal limbo. Here's a city-by-city look.

National Guard troops sent to Chicago, Los Angeles and Portland to support immigration efforts and quell protests will be withdrawn, President Donald Trump announced Wednesday, one week after the Supreme Court ruled his ability to deploy the National Guard only applies in "exceptional" circumstances.

The order arrived nearly a week after President Donald Trump announced on social media that he would abandon his push to deploy troops to three cities, including Portland.

President Trump says he’s dropping — for now — his push to deploy National Guard troops in Chicago, Los Angeles and Portland, Oregon.

Indeed, Portland’s National Guard saga of 2025—which, after three months, appears to have ended this week as the Pentagon ordered the last active troops to demobilize—revealed both the potential and limits of the Trump administration’s storytelling powers.

He made the announcement in a Truth Social post saying his decision is due to crime being reduced in those cities, but suggested that troops could return if crime "begins to soar again."

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump announced Wednesday that he will back off his plans to use National Guard troops in the Democratic-led cities of Chicago, Los Angeles and Portland, Oregon.

A federal judge earlier this month ordered President Donald Trump to return control of some 300 California National Guard troops to the state.

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled against President Trump on Tuesday, refusing to reinstate, for now, Trump's ability to send National Guard troops into the state of Illinois over the objections of the governor.
