A coalition of 109 mayors, elected officials, cities and counties, including San Francisco City Attorney David Chiu, filed an amicus brief asking the Supreme Court to block National Guard deployments to Chicago and other cities. The brief argues that such deployments erode state and local sovereignty, weaken public confidence in local law enforcement, disrupt social stability, and impose millions of dollars in unpaid expenses on local governments. San Francisco officials cite declining homicide and car break-in rates and successful large demonstrations without incident as evidence of local capacity. City officials pledge legal action if federal military deployment proceeds.
