Congress Approves $70 Billion DHS Funding

Congress has narrowly approved a $70 billion funding package for the Department of Homeland Security, intended to support a mass deportation agenda over the next three years. The House passed the reconciliation bill by a slim margin of 214-212, following a similar vote in the Senate. The decision largely adhered to party lines, with a few key Republican defections noted. This significant allocation of funds underscores a major policy initiative and will impact the operational capacity and future direction of the DHS.
