波特兰居民以健康风险和宪法关切为由,起诉在ICE设施附近限制催泪瓦斯。 Portland residents sue to restrict tear gas near ICE facility, citing health risks and constitutional concerns.

波特兰Gray登陆经济适用住房综合体的居民正在寻求联邦法院命令限制联邦代理人在附近的ICE设施附近使用催泪瓦斯,理由是反复接触催泪瓦斯给老年人、残疾人和退伍军人造成了呼吸系统问题、头痛和其他健康问题。 Residents of Portland’s Gray’s Landing affordable housing complex are seeking a federal court order to limit federal agents’ use of tear gas near the nearby ICE facility, citing repeated exposure that has caused respiratory issues, headaches, and other health problems among elderly, disabled, and veteran residents. 有些人在室内戴了防毒面具,窗户被密封,为了安全起见,将儿童转移到衣柜里。 Some have worn gas masks indoors, sealed windows, and moved children to closets for safety. 12月提起的诉讼辩称,使用化学剂污染住家和强行禁闭违反了宪法权利。 The lawsuit, filed in December, argues the use of chemical agents has violated constitutional rights by contaminating homes and forcing confinement. 原告寻求初步禁令,限制使用催泪瓦斯,除非有迫在眉睫的威胁。 Plaintiffs seek a preliminary injunction restricting tear gas use unless there is an imminent threat. 联邦政府坚持认为,针对暴力或违宪人群和关于违反宪法的争端指控,部署是有理由的。 The federal government maintains that deployments were justified in response to violent or noncompliant crowds and disputes claims of constitutional violations. 以前的临时限制令将很快到期。 A previous temporary restraining order is set to expire soon.
