Schumer rips Senate Republicans for passing billions in ICE and Border Patrol funding in late-night vote
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer criticized Senate Republicans for passing a bill to fund U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) with $70 billion. The vote was largely along party lines, with one Republican opposing. Schumer accused Republicans of prioritizing funding for Donald Trump's initiatives, including a controversial $2 billion 'slush fund,' over measures to reduce costs for working families.
