A federal appeals panel will hear arguments Tuesday to determine whether President Donald Trump or California Gov. Gavin Newsom will control the state’s National Guard, a hearing stemming from the state’s challenge to Trump’s decision to federalize the Guard,

A federal judge ruled Trump’s deployment of the California National Guard during the ICE riots was illegal and ordered control returned to Governor Gavin Newsom.

The states say Trump's actions implicate their interest in "ensuring that the deployment of their National Guard units is governed by the rule of law, and not the whims of the President."
