US House rejects DHS funding package earlier passed by Senate | US politics
House Republicans rejected a Senate-passed bill that would have funded most of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) but withheld funding from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and part of Customs and Border Protection (CBP). The move, which came after a two-hour conference call with his Republican colleagues, sets up a clash with the Senate and will force lawmakers to return from their break to vote on a short-term funding bill proposed by House Republicans. The House GOP leader, Mike Johnson, stated that he hopes to take a vote on the stopgap measure in the House as soon as possible.
