Johnson signals delayed House vote as ICE policy clash prolongs shutdown

TL;DR Summary
House Speaker Mike Johnson said it will be a few days before a government funding bill reaches a vote, delaying any resolution of the partial shutdown as Democrats push for tighter ICE controls, including unmasking officers and ending roving patrols. The Senate approved a two‑week DHS funding patch, and Johnson said the president is leading the effort to secure passage, with Democrats insisting on changes beyond what the bill currently contains. The dispute sets up a continued stalemate through the week as lawmakers trade policy concessions on immigration alongside funding needs.
