flag Texas National Guard troops are returning home from Illinois after a controversial deployment tied to immigration enforcement, with legal challenges ongoing.

flag Texas National Guard troops deployed to Illinois in October are returning home ahead of Thanksgiving, Governor Greg Abbott confirmed, citing a decision to "right-size" the federal military footprint. flag The deployment, part of Operation Midway Blitz under Title 10 authority, sent 200 soldiers to the Chicago area to support federal immigration enforcement amid protests near an ICE facility. flag Though the troops did not conduct forward-facing operations, the move sparked legal challenges, with a federal judge ruling the activation unlawful and the case now before the U.S. Supreme Court, which has requested additional briefing. flag The deployment’s legality remains unresolved, but the withdrawal does not affect ongoing litigation.
