WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 House Republicans will look to get nearly $70 billion for immigration enforcement over the finish line Tuesday, enough to fund a pair of Homeland Security agencies through the next three years and the rest of President Donald Trump\u2019s time in office.<\/p>\n

Speaker Mike Johnson will need near perfect attendance and unity on his side to complete weeks of action on the bill. The legislation got sidetracked when Republicans sought to include $1 billion for enhanced security on the White House grounds, including for Trump\u2019s new ballroom, and the Trump administration tried to create a nearly $1.8 billion fund to compensate allies of the president who claim they have been unjustly investigated and prosecuted. Those proposals proved politically toxic and were scrapped.<\/p>\n

Now, the bill is focused entirely on immigration enforcement, a topic that Republicans have treated as a defining issue between the two major political parties and one they hope will carry them to victory in this year\u2019s midterm elections. The bill provides $38 billion for Immigration and Customs Enforcement, $26 billion for the Border Patrol and another $5 billion to cover unforeseen costs, fueling Trump\u2019s deportation agenda.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s long overdue,\u201d said Johnson, R-La., of the bill. \u201cWe have to fund border security and immigration enforcement, and it\u2019s sad that Republicans have to do it on our own.\u201d<\/p>\n

Funding accelerates Trump\u2019s deportation agenda<\/h4>\n

The funding comes on top of the nearly $140 billion that the Republican-controlled Congress gave ICE and Customs and Border Protection last year as part of Trump\u2019s tax and spending cuts bill.<\/p>\n

Democrats objected to giving the agencies more money without significant changes in the way they operate after the deaths of Alex Pretti and Renee Good in Minneapolis. For example, Democrats insisted that agents be required to display their ID badges during enforcement operations and that they get a judicial warrant before entering private property. Instead, the funding will come with virtually no strings attached.<\/p>\n

House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries vowed his party would oppose the package.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

\u201cWe believe that taxpayer dollars should be used to make life more affordable for the American people \u2013 not give ICE another $70 billion blank check so that they can unleash brutality on American citizens and violently target law-abiding immigrant communities,\u201d said Jeffries of New York.<\/p>\n

Homeland Security faced longest shutdown in history<\/h4>\n

The package is the result of a monthslong standoff in Congress after Democrats refused to fund the Department of Homeland Security in the wake of the immigration enforcement actions in Minneapolis and other American cities, leading to the longest shutdown in agency history.<\/p>\n

Negotiations had been underway with the White House to alter ICE operations as Democrats were demanding. When those negotiations failed, Republicans turned to a complicated procedural maneuver to get around the filibuster and pass the immigration funding with no Democratic votes.<\/p>\n

If approved, the package would next go to Trump for his signature, all but assuring an essentially uninterrupted flow of funds for his immigration enforcement and deportation agenda into 2029.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

The Senate completed its work on the legislation last week during an all-night session that extended into the early morning hours Friday. The final 52-47 vote on the bill was nearly party line, with Sen. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska the only Republican to oppose it.<\/p>\n

Money comes at pivotal time for immigration agenda<\/h4>\n

The money will come at a pivotal time for the Department of Homeland Security, which is under new leadership after Trump replaced Kristi Noem with new Secretary Markwayne Mullin in March.<\/p>\n

While Mullin has vowed to keep the department out of the headlines, the administration is under pressure from anti-immigration advocates to deliver on Trump\u2019s campaign promise of the largest deportation operation in American history.<\/p>\n

So far, the administration has not hit its goal of 1 million deportations a year, but Trump\u2019s border czar, Tom Homan, has promised more to come, including hinting at immigration enforcement actions in New York, the nation\u2019s biggest city, which is heavily Democratic.<\/p>\n

At the same time, the administration is making it more difficult for legal immigrants to remain in the U.S. by working to end Temporary Protective Status, changing the processes for obtaining green cards and leaving some Dreamers \u2014 the young people who were brought illegally to the U.S. as children \u2014 reporting delays in renewing their status, which allows them to stay and work.<\/p>\n

Tight vote ahead<\/h4>\n

On the House side, Johnson has little margin for error. Republicans can afford to lose only a couple of votes if every lawmaker is present. GOP leadership opted to avoid any hiccups and sent lawmakers home last week rather than take up the bill early Friday once the Senate had completed its all-nighter.<\/p>\n

The bill is just a slim package, without the hundreds of pages of details and directives that typically come from Congress when it provides funding for agencies.<\/p>\n

Leading up to the vote, Democrats portrayed DHS as an agency that has used its new resources to buy private jets for its leadership, warehouse immigrants in deplorable conditions and attack U.S. citizens.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo give these rogue agencies another $70 billion now when they still have $100 billion in the bank from last year would implicate all of us in the escalating corruption and shameful actions of this department,\u201d said Rep. Jamie Raskin of Maryland, the ranking Democratic member on the House Judiciary Committee.<\/p>\n

Republicans countered that they were fulfilling their duty to safeguard the nation and support the men and women charged with enforcing the law.<\/p>\n

\u201cDemocrats can say whatever they want, but what it\u2019s about is public safety. What\u2019s it about is keeping Americans safe,\u201d said Rep. Michelle Fischbach, R-Minn.<\/p>\n
