Late Wednesday evening, the House adopted the Senate-approved budget after more than two months of a DHS shutdown.

CBS News reported:

The House on Wednesday adopted a Senate-approved budget plan, the first step in a strategy that would allow Republicans to fund federal immigration agencies through the rest of President Trump’s term without the help of Democrats.

Senate Republicans unveiled and adopted the budget blueprint last week. Republicans are trying to meet Mr. Trump’s June deadline to fund Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Border Patrol, and end the funding lapse that has shut down the Department of Homeland Security since February.

The resolution cleared the House in a 215 to 211 vote. It directs the committees that oversee ICE and Border Patrol to draft legislation to deliver about $70 billion to the agencies.

Adoption of the budget plan simply allows lawmakers to begin their work crafting legislation to fund the agencies, which both chambers will later need to approve.

The House voted on the Senate-approved package

Texas Representative Chip Roy said he would have voted no on this Senate-approved funding bill that leaves out funding for ICE and CBP.

NEW: Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) says he would have voted no on this Senate DHS funding bill that leaves out ICE & CBP, and he warns Democrats that “two can play this game” and Dems have “set a precedent for how this is going to work in the future.”

House Speaker Mike Johnson spoke to reporters after the House adopted the Senate-approved package.

“We’ve got the budget resolution passed. This is very, very important because that will ensure that border security and immigration enforcement will continue today and well into the future, despite Democrat attempts to reopen our borders and protect criminal illegal aliens from removal,” Speaker Johnson said.

“The net result of passing our reconciliation bill is that ICE and CBP are funded for three years,” Johnson said.

“Democrats got absolutely nothing for their political charade and shenanigans out there,” he said.
