Here is a rewritten version of the news article in a neutral newsroom style:

A surge in immigration in Minnesota is expected to come to an end, according to reports. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is nearing a potential shutdown.

The news comes as officials from the state and federal governments face questions about enforcement efforts. Governor Tim Walz has stated that the federal government needs to “pay for what they broke here” in reference to the recent surge in immigration.

In Minneapolis, the enforcement surge is set to end, with officials facing tough questions in a Senate hearing. The city’s retreat on immigration could potentially undermine Democratic messaging as a shutdown looms.

The DHS has not yet confirmed the exact timing of the end of the enforcement surge, but reports suggest that it will be brought to an end soon. The situation remains fluid, and further updates are expected.
