Today, House Appropriations Committee Ranking Member Rosa DeLauro issued the following statement on the release of Republicans’ partisan budget resolution that would give U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) $70 billion until 2035 on top of the $140 billion they received in the Big Beautiful Bill.

Republicans on the House Financial Services and General Government Appropriations Subcommittee pushed through, on a party-line vote, a fiscal year 2027 spending bill that benefits billionaires, big corporations, and the well-connected at the expense of the working class, the middle class, and vulnerable Americans.
