President Donald Trump signed a bill on Wednesday morning to fund immigration agencies through the end of his presidency.
Several Republican lawmakers joined the president in the Oval Office, including Kentucky GOP Sen. Rand Paul.
Paul chairs the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, which is one of the panels with jurisdiction over immigration.
“Boy oh boy, it’s nice to have Rand,” Trump remarked Wednesday as he kicked off the event.
House Republicans delivered the legislative victory to President Trump on Tuesday, narrowly passing a reconciliation package that will provide tens of billions of dollars in long-term funding for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Customs and Border Protection (CBP), and other Department of Homeland Security operations.
