The Senate early Friday passed a $70 billion package to fund immigration enforcement agencies through the remainder of President Trump\u2019s term, after pulling an all-nighter.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The measure now heads to the House, which already left town for the weekend and is not expected to take up the bill until early next week.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Senate\u2019s 52-47 vote to pass the bill came after a roughly 19-hour \u201cvote-a-rama\u201d in which senators could offer unlimited motions or amendments related to the bill \u2013 a quirk of the filibuster-proof budget reconciliation process.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The extended floor action came with several politically charged votes, including several failed proposals to legislatively nix the Justice Department\u2019s $1.8 billion Anti-Weaponization Fund, block taxpayer funding for the new White House ballroom, remove William J. Pulte as acting Director of National Intelligence and redirect funds toward affordable housing programs. \u00a0<\/p>\n

In the end, no changes to the measure were adopted, except for a substitute amendment containing minor technical tweaks.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Republicans decided more than two months ago to use the budget reconciliation process to fund U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection, after Democrats filibustered annual appropriations for the agencies.\u00a0<\/p>\n

That led to a 76-day shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security, which oversees both agencies, before Republicans gave into Democrats\u2019 suggestion to fund the non-immigration enforcement agencies separately.\u00a0<\/p>\n

However, Democrats did not win any of the legislative guardrails they were seeking to place on the president\u2019s deportation force after immigration agents killed two U.S. citizens protesting enforcement activity in Minneapolis early this year.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The budget reconciliation package the Senate passed Friday includes $38.6 billion for ICE, $26 billion for CBP and another $5 billion for DHS to use for immigration enforcement as it sees fit.<\/p>\n

The money is available to spend immediately through fiscal 2029, which will ensure ICE and CBP are funded for the rest of Mr. Trump\u2019s presidency.\u00a0<\/p>\n
