US Senate passes ICE funding resolution after ‘vote-a-rama’: What’s next?

Al Jazeera·4h ago·Neutral

What Happened

The US Senate passed a resolution to fund Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection, advancing Republican efforts to fund Trump's immigration policies. Republicans used parliamentary procedures to achieve a simple majority, with fifty voting in favour and two breaking ranks. The House must now pass its own resolution before committees draft final legislation, with Trump seeking approval by June 1.
