Senate stalls funding package as shutdown deadline nears amid ICE reform talks
TL;DR Summary
The Senate’s 45-55 vote to advance a six-bill funding package fell short of the 60 votes needed, stalling the package as Democrats demand DHS/immigration reforms. Negotiations would strip DHS funding from the package and fund it later via a continuing resolution while ICE reforms are negotiated with the White House; House approval is still required, and a partial shutdown could begin Saturday if no deal is reached.
