DHS shutdown continues
Johnson told colleagues he will not hold a vote on the Senate's funding bill until there is significant progress on funding for ICE and CBP. The deadlock has caused widespread disruption, including delays in backpay for TSA officers and heightened security concerns at airports.
Democrats have sued to block executive orders they claim interfere with election integrity during the shutdown.
Meanwhile, President Trump has promised to sign an order ensuring all DHS employees are eventually paid.
