House Passes 60-Day DHS Funding Extension as Shutdown Enters Day 42
- The House passed legislation on Friday to fund the Department of Homeland Security for 60 days at current levels through May 22, extending funding for all agencies including Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
- The measure cleared the House 213–203, with three Democrats voting alongside Republicans, automatically passing once the rule was adopted without a separate floor vote.
- Senate Democrats rejected the House GOP proposal as "dead on arrival," having already passed their own bipartisan bill that excluded ICE and parts of Customs and Border Protection funding.
- The shutdown, which began February 14, remains unresolved as the Senate has left for a two-week recess, leaving the dispute over immigration agency funding unresolved.
