DHS Funding Rapidly Secured
Council Chair Crystal Oriata signed six different bills focused on childcare in Washington DC. Brianna Meadows of Capital Heights expressed support for both the subsidy and the expansion grants. One of the bills remains a subject of controversy, according to the source. President Trump is expected to swiftly sign bipartisan legislation that fully funds several Department of Homeland Security agencies. The bill includes funding for the Coast Guard, the TSA, the Secret Service, FEMA, and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency. Funding for administrative employees at ICE and Border Patrol will not be included in the package. The legislation covers various other offices within DHS that do not deal with immigration enforcement. House Republicans have voted to end the 75-day Department of Homeland Security shutdown, aligning with Senate positions.
