DHS funding advances in Senate

Following a marathon overnight session, the Senate advanced a budget resolution aimed at reopening the Department of Homeland Security.

The plan provides three years of funding for Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection, bypassing Democratic demands for oversight.

The DHS has been partially closed for nearly 70 days, resulting in significant operational strain on federal agents.

The legislation now moves to the House, where conservative members are already demanding further concessions.
