On Friday, the American Civil Liberties Union confirmed it had filed a lawsuit against the Department of Homeland Security and the US Marshals Service after they deployed federal agents into Portland to quell protests. The lawsuit will attempt to block the DHS and other agencies from targeting journalists and legal observers at demonstrations. Later, Oregon Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum confirmed the Oregon Department of Justice will sue several federal agencies for alleged civil rights violations.
