Trump signs bill funding the Department of Homeland Security, ending record shutdown
- On Thursday, the House of Representatives passed a Senate-approved funding package for the Department of Homeland Security via voice vote, ending the record 76-day partial shutdown and sending the bill to President Donald Trump.
- The shutdown, which began in mid-February, stemmed from fierce disputes over immigration enforcement funding; the approved bill excludes Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Border Patrol, a move Democrats demanded to bypass GOP opposition.
- House Republicans adopted a separate budget resolution late Wednesday, aiming to provide roughly $70 billion for immigration agencies through reconciliation, a party-line process that bypasses Democratic opposition entirely.
- Passage ensures immediate stabilization for the Transportation Security Administration , Secret Service, Coast Guard, and Federal Emergency Management Agency , restoring pay for thousands of federal employees and averting further disruptions.
- Texas Representative Chip Roy warned that isolating immigration funds sets a dangerous precedent, signaling internal GOP friction ahead of the June deadline to finalize enforcement agency funding and potential future legislative standoffs.
