Summary
Tuesday’s House vote would end a four-month funding lapse for immigration enforcement agencies, bringing a delayed ICE funding bill to the floor after the Senate passed it Friday.
Republican holdups centered on disputes tied to President Donald Trump’s ballroom and a $1.8 billion payout fund, turning the measure into a test of tensions between Trump and congressional Republicans.
The vote caps weeks of internal delays and could close a funding gap that has stretched for months, with the broader fight exposing strains inside the GOP over immigration-related spending.
