“Enforce Court Ruling Against Trump’s Illegal National Guard Deployment”

To: Sen. Grassley, Rep. Nunn, Sen. Ernst

From: A constituent in Des Moines, IA

June 13

I write today to urge your full support for the enforcement of U.S. District Judge Charles Breyer’s June 12, 2025 ruling in Newsom v. Trump. This federal court order rightly halted the illegal deployment of the California National Guard by former President Trump—who overstepped constitutional boundaries and ignored the governor’s authority—finding the action in violation of the Tenth Amendment and Title 10 of the U.S. Code . This decision is a crucial defense of federalism, civil liberties, and the rule of law. It prevents the unchecked use of military force against American citizens for political ends. I urge you to: 1. Publicly back Judge Breyer’s ruling. 2. Demand immediate compliance from former President Trump, including returning Guard control to Governor Newsom. 3. Support legislation reinforcing guard deployment safeguards to prevent future federal overreach. Thank you for upholding constitutional order and ensuring that no President can bypass our foundational checks and balances. I look forward to your prompt action and your response.
