Trump ordered the deployment of roughly 4,000 National Guard troops and 700 Marines to Los Angeles following protests over his stepped-up enforcement of immigration laws. A federal appeals court on Tuesday will hear the government’s challenge to a judge’s order that Trump exceeded his authority by taking control of California’s Guard troops.

The ongoing protests in Los Angeles began with small demonstrations against immigration raids in the nation's second largest city.

Activists plan more events Tuesday in New York, Chicago, Dallas and Atlanta. A curfew was imposed across downtown L.A. until 6 a.m.
