Immigration policy clash risks fresh DHS shutdown as funding deadline nears

TL;DR Summary
As the Department of Homeland Security funding deadline nears, Democrats push reforms to rein in immigration agencies (ICE/CBP)—including warrants, independent investigations, a ban on masks for agents, and body cameras—while Republicans push back and seek sanctuary-city crackdowns. If a deal isn’t reached by Feb. 13, a new partial shutdown could follow, with the impact largely felt beyond ICE (affecting TSA, FEMA, Coast Guard, Secret Service). Polls show public support for some reforms, adding complexity to negotiations.
