Small bloc of Democrats weighs breaking with leadership to back ICE funding in DHS bill
TL;DR Summary
A small faction of House Democrats is prepared to break with leadership and back a Department of Homeland Security funding bill that would fund ICE, a move likely to pass with Republican votes and potentially undercut the party’s push to rein in ICE. Leader Hakeem Jeffries opposes the package, while Reps. Henry Cuellar and Jared Golden say they’ll likely vote for it; several swing-district Democrats remain undecided, with observers forecasting 10 or fewer defections.
