Gov. JB Pritzker, Mayor Brandon Johnson Ask Judge to Block Trump From Deploying 400 Texas National Guard Troops to Chicago
Heather Cherone | October 6, 2025

llinois Gov. JB Pritzker and Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson asked a federal judge Monday morning to block President Donald Trump from deploying 400 members of the Texas National Guard to Chicago alongside 300 members of the Illinois National Guard.

Military officials mobilized 2,000 members of the Texas National Guard Sunday to protect federal property at “locations where violent demonstrations against these functions are occurring or are likely to occur” in “Illinois, Oregon and other locations throughout the United States,” records show.

The lawsuit filed by Illinois and Chicago officials calls the looming deployment a politically motivated and unconstitutional federal overreach.

“The American people, regardless of where they reside, should not live under the threat of occupation by the United States military, particularly not simply because their city or state leadership has fallen out of a president’s favor,” according to the lawsuit.
