The U.S. Federal Court of Appeal continued to call on the U.S. government to halt the deployment of the National Guard in Illinois on the 16th, according to U.S. media reports such as the "Congress Hill" and "Political News Network", the U.S. Department of Justice filed an emergency appeal to the Supreme Court on the 17th local time, demanding the revocation of the decision of the lower court.

The decision of the U.S. Federal Court of Appeal on 16 October will allow the temporary restriction order issued by U.S. District Judge April Perry on 9 October for the deployment to continue to be effective. Deputy Attorney General of the U.S. Department of Justice John Sear said in a document submitted to the Supreme Court that the Supreme Court should completely suspend the ban issued by the District Court on 9 October, ¡°which inappropriately infringes on the president¡¯s powers and puts federal personnel and property in unnecessary danger.¡±

This is the first time a Supreme Court judge has been asked to intervene in the U.S. government¡¯s massive deployment of the National Guard in the United States.

According to reports, after sending troops to Los Angeles and Washington, D.C. earlier this year, the US federal government recently sent the National Guard to Chicago, Illinois. According to US media reports, 200 Texas National Guard members arrived in Chicago on the 7th of this month. This move triggered opposition from the local government and people.
