House Set to Vote on $70 Billion Immigration Enforcement Bill

09 June 2026 06:40

House Republicans are set to vote on a $70 billion immigration enforcement package that funds ICE and Border Patrol through 2029, fueling Trump's deportation agenda. - The bill provides $38 billion for ICE, $26 billion for Border Patrol, and $5 billion for unforeseen costs.

- Democrats oppose the package, citing lack of oversight and operational changes. - The Senate passed the bill last week on a near-party-line vote of 52-47.

- If approved, the funding will ensure uninterrupted enforcement actions through 2029. The vote comes after a months-long standoff and the longest shutdown in DHS history.
