Senate Majority Leader John Thune led the Republican effort to salvage a funding deal to end the Homeland Security shutdown.
Senators are negotiating a compromise to fund the Department of Homeland Security and the TSA to end a month-long shutdown that has caused severe airport delays. The proposal would restore general funding but excludes ICE's enforcement and removal operations to satisfy Democratic demands for immigration reform.
