Show Notes
House Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune unveil a two-pronged plan to fully fund the Department of Homeland Security, bypassing a record partial government shutdown. The strategy involves funding most of the department based on the Senates earlier proposal, while handling U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and U.S. Border Patrol through separate party-line spending later on. The plan, backed by President Donald Trump, faces potential hurdles from within the GOP ranks. The first track skips key immigration agencies, with the second aiming to address this gap on Republican votes alone. The situation remains fluid as both sides prepare for the next moves on funding.
