GOP seeks explicit ICE body-camera funding in DHS bill after Minneapolis incident

House Republicans are pressing to explicitly earmark DHS funding for ICE body cameras in the Homeland Security appropriations bill, arguing clear language is needed for proper use. Democrats want guardrails on immigration enforcement, including restrictions on masks and unmarked uniforms. The dispute comes as Congress races to finalize funding by the Jan. 30 deadline, with negotiators optimistic the body-camera provision will remain in the final DHS package.
