Capitol agenda: DHS shutdown now in House’s hands

Congress could finally be on track to end the nearly six-week DHS shutdown.

The Senate called an end to weeks of tortured negotiations and voice-voted a bill funding all of DHS except ICE and parts of CBP around 2:30 Friday morning — essentially delivering exactly what Democrats had asked for in recent days.

But Republicans are promising to come back and fund immigration enforcement with a vengeance in an upcoming reconciliation bill — not just for fiscal 2027, but for many years to come.
