Today, after shutting down the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) for 76 days and refusing to fund any agency under DHS without additional funding for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and the Border Patrol, House Republican leadership finally abandoned their senseless opposition to this common-sense solution and allowed a vote in the House on the unanimous Senate-passed bill, which closely mirrors legislation Ranking Member DeLauro introduced in February. The bill passed overwhelmingly.

Today, the House Appropriations Committee passed on a party-line vote the Republicans’ 2027 State, Foreign Operations and Related Programs funding bill, which forfeits American influence on the world stage, slashes humanitarian funding, and threatens women’s health around the globe.
