Senate votes to fund much of DHS, minus immigration enforcement
https://www.npr.org/2026/03/27/g-s1-115366/senate-...

The Senate voted overnight to fund much of the Department of Homeland Security after a 42-day standoff over immigration enforcement tactics.

The measure does not include additional funding for Immigration and Customs Enforcement or Border Patrol — and it does not include any of the demands Democrats made to limit the tactics of federal immigration officers.
...
"Democrats held firm in our opposition that Donald Trump's rogue and deadly militia should not get more funding without serious reforms, and we will continue to fight for those reforms," Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said on the floor. "I'm very proud of our Democratic caucus. Throughout it all, Senate Democrats stood united — no wavering, no backing down. We held the line."


ICE and Border Patrol are already funded by the BBB and will get additional funding through a party-line reconciliation bill. ICE agents will still be masked

What did the Democrats achieve? Was it worth all that disruption?
