Centrists Back DHS Funding to Avert Shutdown and Fund ICE
TL;DR Summary
The House advanced funding through September to avert a shutdown, with a DHS package funding ICE passing 220-207 thanks to seven Democrats (Golden, Gluesenkamp Perez, Cuellar, Davis, Gonzalez, Suozzi, Gillen) and one Republican (Massie) in opposition; another package funding Defense, HHS, Labor, Transportation and HUD cleared 341-88. Democrats who supported DHS argued the bill funds FEMA, Coast Guard and other agencies beyond ICE, while leadership did not whip against the measure, leaving centrists room to vote with Republicans amid ongoing ICE-reform debates following the Renee Good shooting.
