The US House of Representatives voted on Tuesday to pass the reconciliation bill to fund ICE and CBP, more than a week after President Trump’s June 1 deadline.
The $70 billion bill will fund the Department of Homeland Security’s immigration functions for the remainder of Trump’s term.
This comes after a contentious vote in the Senate amid tensions over Trump’s $1.776 billion anti-weaponization fund and White House Ballroom funding.
Some Republicans reportedly expressed concerns because the bill does not prevent Trump from restoring his anti-weaponization fund to compensate victims of Biden-era lawfare.
Other attempts were made to block the construction of Trump’s White House Ballroom entirely. Six Republicans, Susan Collins (ME), Jon Husted (OH), Jerry Moran (KS), Lisa Murkowski (AK), Dan Sullivan (AK), and Thom Tillis (NC), voted in favor of Democrat Oregon Senator Jeff Merkley’s failed amendment to require Congressional approval for the construction. The final bill passed with only RINO Lisa Murkowski voting no.
Several House Republicans almost torpedoed an earlier procedural vote, reportedly seeking to codify more of Trump’s border policies.
However, the rule advancing the bill to a final floor vote passed earlier by a vote of 213-211.
The House later voted 214-212 on the House Floor.
Every House Republican voted in favor, and every Democrat voted against.
