House Set to Vote on $70 Billion ICE Funding Bill After Senate Approval
The U.S. House of Representatives is preparing to vote on a $70 billion funding bill for immigration enforcement agencies, including Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Border Patrol. This follows the Senate's approval of the bill after overcoming several legislative hurdles. The funding is intended to support these agencies through the remainder of President Trump's term. The bill's progress was delayed due to disagreements over additional funding requests, including a $1 billion proposal for a White House ballroom and a $1.8 billion Justice Department fund for politically persecuted individuals. These contentious items were ultimately removed from the legislation.
