Overview

  • Vice President JD Vance announced on June 21 that the National Guard deployment will continue amid fears that demonstrations could reignite violence
  • The administration deployed National Guard troops and Marines in early June following ICE raids that detained and bound migrants, prompting widespread protests
  • Demonstrations in Los Angeles have been largely peaceful with occasional rioting and looting, and a nighttime curfew imposed by Mayor Karen Bass was later lifted
  • Governor Gavin Newsom and Mayor Karen Bass criticized the federal force deployment as an overreach that risks escalating tensions and undermining state control over the National Guard
  • A California appeals court ruled President Trump likely acted within his authority in ordering the deployment, and Newsom has vowed to appeal that decision
