Show Notes

After nearly seven weeks, the longest government shutdown in history is nearing an end. Republicans in Congress have reached a deal to fund most of the Department of Homeland Security, excluding Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Border Patrol for now. The plan also includes a faster budget bill to cover immigration enforcement needs. The shutdown has caused chaos at airports and put public safety at risk. The deal, announced by House Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune, aims to fully fund DHS on two tracks: regular appropriations and a faster reconciliation process. With Congress on a two-week recess, the exact timeline remains unclear, but this deal marks a significant step towards ending the shutdown.
