In a series of tumultuous negotiations, the U.S. House of Representatives narrowly passed a funding bill to end a partial government shutdown that lasted less than four days. President Trump signed the $1.2 trillion spending package, which includes funding for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) for two weeks, securing back pay for furloughed federal employees. However, contentious discussions are ongoing regarding immigration enforcement and a longer-term funding solution. While House Democrats express frustration over leadership decisions, skepticism remains among Republicans about the stability of these negotiations, particularly concerning future DHS funding and immigration policies. As the clock ticks down to the next funding deadline, tensions are high and the potential for another shutdown looms.
