8 OUTLETS
Trump and GOP Leaders Back Two-Track DHS Funding Plan

Trump and Republican leaders backed a two-track DHS funding plan, pairing regular appropriations for most of the department with separate reconciliation funding for immigration enforcement. The plan aims to end the partial shutdown, and Trump urged passage by June 1. Left-leaning outlets focus on Trump’s praise of Thune and the criticism it drew from some of his supporters. Center outlets describe a route to reopening DHS while stressing Republican divisions and legislative hurdles. Right-leaning outlets emphasize bypassing Democratic votes to fund immigration enforcement, often presenting the plan as a way to end the shutdown.
