Agencies within the department that do not deal with immigration enforcement are now funded, including the Coast Guard, Transportation Security Administration, Secret Service, Federal Emergency Management Agency, and Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency.

Congress has until June 1 to meet Trump's deadline to pass a separate bill funding Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Patrol through the process of reconciliation. Reconciliation packages can pass the Senate with a simple majority vote, meaning Republicans won't need Democrat votes to fund immigration enforcement.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement was already funded through 2029 due to the One Big Beautiful Bill Act.

"DHS is back open, ICE and CBP will be funded through reconciliation (with NO Democrat votes) so liberals can't play games with federal law enforcement funding," Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin wrote on X. "

To be clear, this Democrat shutdown NEVER should have happened," he continued. "To our great, patriotic employees who have continued to protect the homeland every single day without a guaranteed paycheck—thank you. President Trump and I are very grateful to be in the fight with you to Make America Safe Again."

After two Immigration and Customs Enforcement protesters were shot and killed by federal agents in Minnesota in January, Democrats made clear they would not fund the agency without major reforms to immigration enforcement.

The White House and Democrats held negotiations to find a compromise, but the White House rejected multiple offers that it said put undue burdens on immigration agents. Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
