House and Senate Republicans Reach Deal to End Homeland Security Shutdown
Apr 1, 2026 · Capitol Hill, DC
Senate and House Republican leaders announced an agreement to reopen the Department of Homeland Security through September 30, resurrecting a bipartisan deal previously rejected by President Trump. The plan would omit funding for Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Border Patrol, with those agencies to be paid from previously appropriated funds. Democrats have demanded restrictions on federal immigration agents' conduct following the killing of two U.S. citizens in Minneapolis by immigration officers.
