The Senate is voting on funding for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) amid a looming shutdown deadline, but negotiations on immigration enforcement reforms remain stalled. Senate Democrats plan to vote against the proposal, citing a lack of progress on reforms to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) following recent violence. The White House and Democrats have exchanged proposals, but both sides criticize each other’s drafts as insufficient. With DHS funding potentially lapsing, key agencies like the Coast Guard and FEMA could be affected, while lawmakers remain divided on how to proceed.
