Trump takes ICE shutdowns off the table with signature on key $70B bill

President Donald Trump signed the $70 billion Republican-led homeland security bill Wednesday after the Senate-crafted measure narrowly passed the House despite the GOP's slim majority.

Speaking from the Oval Office alongside House Speaker Mike Johnson, Senate Majority Leader John Thune, Majority Leader Steve Scalise and other lawmakers, Trump said he was "thrilled" to fund the Department of Homeland Security and give "heroes of ICE and Border Patrol" needed resources through the end of his term, referring to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
