House approves DHS funding, ending shutdown for most of the department
TL;DR Summary
The House approved a bipartisan plan to fund most of the Department of Homeland Security through September, ending the longest U.S. government shutdown for the bulk of DHS after nearly 11 weeks of emergency funding. Immigration and Border Patrol funding would be addressed separately. President Trump urged lawmakers to act before emergency funds ran dry, and the measure passed largely without fanfare.
