Lawyers for Oregon, California and Portland ask appeals court to remand case to federal district judge for "monitoring and enforcement."

Democratic Sens. Andy Kim (N.J.) and Gary Peters (Mich.) released a report Thursday estimating that Washington’s National Guard deployment is costing the federal government well more than $1 million per day.

The National Guard said troops’ presence has deterred petty crime and helps control crowds during the police department’s law enforcement efforts.

A group of 24 Democratic state legislators are pushing a bill that would make it tougher for President Donald Trump to once again order National Guard troops into Portland — or any part of Oregon — as part of an immigration crackdown or to quell crime.

National Guard members were deployed by the Trump administration in August. More than 2,000 are still in Washington.

The operation in Washington, D.C. alone is projected to cost upwards of $660 million if it runs through the end of this year as expected, according to new data released by the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office.

Around 250 soldiers from the Iowa National Guard's 2nd Brigade Combat Team are returning to the U.S. as part of a phased return from their deployment.

West Virginia National Guard members, Air Force Staff Sergeant Andrew Wolfe and U.S. Army Specialist Sarah Beckstrom, will soon be Purple Heart recipients, according to U.S. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth.
