Jeffries Snaps After Senate Delivers Major Win for Trump’s Border Agenda

Lawmakers have passed a massive $70 billion funding package for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Border Patrol, and the Department of Homeland Security.

The bill would provide roughly $38.6 billion for ICE, $22.6 billion for Border Patrol, and another $5 billion for DHS operations, effectively funding Trump’s border enforcement agenda through 2029

The vote represents one funding package for immigration enforcementding packages in recent history and gives the administration a clear path toward expanding deportation operations, detention capacity, and border security infrastructure over the next several years.
