Portland -- U.S. Sen. Ron Wyden issued the following statement today in response to U.S. District Judge Karin Immergut's ruling that grants a temporary restraining order blocking Donald Trump's deployment of National Guard troops in Portland:
"Today's victory clearly supports what Oregonians already know: we don't need or want Donald Trump to provoke conflict by deploying federal troops in our state," Wyden said. "I will keep working with local and state officials to ensure Trump does not keep wasting millions of taxpayer dollars to make Portland the center of his perverse fantasy about conducting assaults on U.S. cities."
