SEATTLE – Washington Attorney General Nick Brown today filed an amicus brief in support of D.C. Attorney General Brian Schwalb’s lawsuit challenging the Trump administration’s unlawful deployment of National Guard troops to the District of Columbia.

Brown joined a coalition of 22 attorneys general in asserting that the deployment of National Guard troops without the consent of D.C. is unlawful, unconstitutional, and undemocratic.
