Judge Orders Helicopter's Return

(Eugene, OR)  --  A federal judge in Eugene has ordered the U.S. Coast Guard to return a helicopter to Newport.  The Newport Fishermen's Wives organization sued over the Coast Guard's decision to move the helicopter from Newport to North Bend.  The nonprofit alleged in its lawsuit that the removal of the helicopter from its Newport location endangered the lives of fishermen and visitors to the beach.  The judge also ruled the Trump Administration didn't follow procedures for public comment and proper notice to Congress that the helicopter was to be moved.
