The Republican-led Senate will vote on a $70 billion bill to fund ICE and Border Patrol after the White House dropped a $1.776 billion settlement fund for political allies and removed $1 billion for White House security, including Trump's ballroom. - The bill was delayed for weeks due to Republican pushback on the settlement fund and White House security funding.
- Democrats plan amendments to ensure the settlement fund is permanently blocked, despite the administration's claim it is scrapped. - Republicans need unity to pass the bill using budget reconciliation, avoiding Democratic votes.
The legislation aims to fund immigration enforcement agencies that Democrats have blocked for months, but success depends on GOP cohesion in both chambers.
