Senate Republicans unveiled a $140 billion budget resolution for ICE and CBP to bypass a 67-day DHS shutdown using the filibuster-proof reconciliation process.
Senate Majority Leader introducing the resolution
Thune's version of this story ↗Right-leaning outlets like The Daily Signal frame Speaker Johnson’s strategy as a necessary effort to ensure immigration enforcement agencies are not "orphaned" during the DHS shutdown. Conversely, left-leaning Raw Story highlights internal GOP friction, reporting on conflicting accounts between Johnson and Senate leadership regarding the funding plan. Center sources such as WTOP News focus on the mechanics of Johnson’s "sequencing" approach to prioritize ICE and Border Patrol before broader department funding.
