Immigration Funding Bill Is Finally Here

Late Monday night, Senate Republicans announced a funding package to earmark more than $70 billion to protect the American homeland. The package would fund immigration services, training for officers, efforts to combat human and drug trafficking, and security provisions related to President Donald Trump’s planned White House ballroom.

This is Reconciliation 2.0.

Republicans plan to fund Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection through the reconciliation process, beginning in the Senate. The Senate Judiciary Committee and the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee have released the first draft of legislative text, which is expected to reach the floor the week of May 18 to meet the president’s June 1 funding deadline.

“We will work to ensure this critical funding gets signed into law without unnecessary delay,” Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley said.
