Trump’s people say their boss could agree to funding Homeland Security Department WITHOUT his SAVE Bill included….
And leave ICE funding also separate
This would start new Homeland Boss Mullin off to a good start…
And pay TSA screeners…..
Democrats HAVE stayed united in the Senate to force Trump & Co. and Republicans to address changes in the admin’s immigration policy…..*
Update
Democrats turn down this latest DHS Deal
…..
President Donald Trump hasn’t yet publicly weighed in on a brewing deal to fund the Department of Homeland Security, but a White House official said Tuesday morning the yet-to-be-finalized bipartisan agreement “seems to be an acceptable solution.”
That official, granted anonymity to discuss the private deliberations, noted that “conversations are ongoing” to finalize a deal with Democrats to fund DHS more than five weeks after funding lapsed. It would pair funding for most of the department, save for ICE enforcement operations, with a new GOP reconciliation effort to pass the left-behind funding plus parts of the GOP elections bill known as the SAVE America Act.
The framework took flight after a group of Republican senators met with Trump at the White House late Monday, a day after the president’s public rejection of action to fund DHS without passage of the SAVE America Act alongside it….
Note…
The House is working to present the SAVE bill things up that would be stripped out in a final reconciliation bill as a way to make Trump happy….
