TL;DR Summary
The Senate unanimously approved a DHS funding package that funds all of the department except ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations and parts of CBP, effectively ending a 40-day shutdown; House action is uncertain, Democrats demand immigration reforms before funding ICE, and Trump backed paying TSA workers via executive action while ICE funding will be pursued separately.
