Mike Johnson Backs DHS Bill Ending Record Shutdown

The House passed a bill funding much of the Department of Homeland Security, and the record shutdown ended. The measure left immigration-enforcement funding out. Left-leaning outlets cast Johnson’s move to bring the Senate bill forward as a retreat and a win for Democrats. Center outlets focus on the bipartisan bill ending the shutdown while enforcement funding remains separate. Right-leaning outlets emphasize Republicans’ separate funding path for immigration enforcement, alongside Johnson’s eventual support for the Senate measure.
