Tina Kotek urged Trump during a phone call to abandon the plan. \u201cPortland is doing just fine, and I made that very clear to the President this morning,\u201d Kotek said at a press conference, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.klcc.org\/politics-government\/2025-09-27\/portland-is-doing-just-fine-oregon-governor-rejects-trumps-plan-to-send-troops-to-the-city\">KLCC<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kotek added that Portland is \u201ca far cry from the war-ravaged community that he has posted about on social media\u201d and said her office is not aware of any new federal troop presence in the state. She confirmed receiving written communication from the Department of War offering the option to utilize National Guard troops but said she would not accept.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a statement included with the lawsuit, Rayfield said Oregon communities are stable and local officials are capable of managing public safety. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSending in 200 National Guard troops to guard a single building is not normal,\u201d Rayfield said. He accused Trump of \u201cflexing political muscle under the guise of law and order.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The dispute in Oregon comes two weeks after Trump signed a memorandum establishing a federal task force in Memphis, Tennessee, to combat violent crime, following an earlier deployment in Washington, D.C. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the signing, Trump suggested that additional deployments could take place in Chicago, St. Louis, and New Orleans. On Sunday, Chicago saw dozens of armed federal agents in tactical gear patrolling prominent tourist and shopping areas, according to the Associated Press.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield announced that the state and the City of Portland have filed a lawsuit against President Donald Trump and top federal officials over the deployment of 200 Oregon National Guard members.
