Senate Deadlock Persists: Homeland Security Shutdown Continues
Senate leaders failed to reach a deal on ending the Homeland Security shutdown, now in its second week. Federal workers face another missed paycheck, and travelers face long airport security lines. Republicans and Democrats are at odds over immigration enforcement funding. The Senate plans a vote on a bill funding most of Homeland Security but excluding ICE deportation operations, described as a major compromise. President Trump expressed frustration with any deal lacking reforms. Lawmakers worry about heading into a spring recess without an agreement. Coast Guard, FEMA, Secret Service, and TSA workers are affected, but ICE and border patrol have extra funds. Senators urge staying put to resolve the issue before more fall.
