Senate passes ICE, Border Patrol funding after fight over Trump settlement fund
The Senate passed a $70B bill early Friday to fund ICE and Border Patrol for three years, ending months of delays. The 52-47 vote followed an all-night clash over former President Trump’s disputed $1.776B settlement fund, with Republicans defeating multiple bipartisan attempts to block payouts. GOP divisions over the fund, despite assurances it won’t proceed, nearly derailed the bill, which now shifts to the House amid ongoing immigration policy battles.
