Residents of an apartment complex neighboring an Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in Portland, Oregon, are suing the Department of Homeland Security after being forced to wear gas masks in their homes, and shelter sleeping children in closets, according to a lawsuit.
President Donald Trump described Portland as “War-ravaged” last year when it became the focus of his anti-immigration operation. Since June 2025, the ICE facility in Portland’s South Waterfront neighborhood has become the site of clashes between federal officers and protesters.
