House passes funding bill for ICE and Border Patrol

On Tuesday, Republicans’ sweeping immigration enforcement and border security package cleared the House, ending a months-long standoff with Democrats over funding President Donald Trump's immigration crackdown agenda. The $70 billion immigration enforcement measure passed 214-212 over the fierce objections of Democrats, who unanimously voted against the package. California Independent Representative Kevin Kiley who caucuses with Republicans, also joined Democrats in opposing the measure. House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA), Rep. Steve Scalise (R-LA), and Rep. Lisa McClain (R-MI.) delivered remarks following the House's passage of the bill.
