The Spin


House Republicans ended the Democrat-caused DHS shutdown and locked in border security funding for three years through reconciliation — Democrats got nothing for their obstruction. Every single Democrat in Congress has made clear through their actions that they want to defund immigration enforcement entirely. Passing the budget resolution ensures ICE and CBP keep operating no matter how hard Democrats fight to reopen the border.

Republicans held DHS funding hostage for over two months just to funnel billions more into ICE brutality, and House Democrats forced them to back down. TSA, FEMA, the Coast Guard and the Secret Service are finally funded again — no thanks to extremists who prioritized mass deportations over actual public safety. ICE still won't get another penny until real reforms are in place.
