If they fail to reach a deal in time, the Department of Homeland Security — including the Transportation Security Administration and the Federal Emergency Management Agency — would shut down on Feb. 14. ICE and the agency’s other immigration efforts would continue to operate due to the $170 billion appropriated for Homeland Security under the Republican tax and spending law passed last year.
“ICE and the Department of Homeland Security need to dramatically change,” House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-New York) told reporters Monday. “And absent that, then a full-year appropriations bill is in deep trouble.”
The vote was 217-214. House Democrats pledged not to help House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-Louisiana) kick off the process of considering the legislation, though 21 voted for the final bill Tuesday afternoon. Twenty-one Republicans, meanwhile, voted no…..

Trump has signed the Spending bills…..
Homeland gets a holdover ….
Real fire works probably coming on that one
More on the Democratic angst on the spending bill’s vote…
More than 20 House Democrats voted with Republicans on Tuesday to reopen the government and keep the Department of Homeland Security funded for two weeks.
Why it matters: The vote created harsh divisions among Democrats, some of whom argued that the party should use the partial shutdown as leverage to force drastic reforms of ICE and Customs and Border Protection.
Many Democrats also felt considerable apprehension about the optics of voting for even short-term DHS funding without strings attached following the fatal shootings of Renée Good and Alex Pretti.

Driving the news: The House voted 217 to 214 to pass the legislation….
