House of Representatives Votes to Extend DHS Funding, Shutdown Continues

The US House of Representatives has voted to extend funding for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), but the shutdown remains in place. The Senate had previously passed a bill to fund the agency, and now it is up to the House to approve or reject it.

According to reports, Republicans in Congress claim to have reached a deal to end the record-long shutdown at DHS. However, details of the agreement remain unclear.

The DHS shutdown has been ongoing for several days, affecting thousands of federal employees who work for the agency’s various components, including US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

The Senate passed a bill to fund DHS on [date], but it is now up to the House to consider the legislation. If the House approves the bill, it would send it back to the Senate for final approval.

In related news, the Senate has advanced a deal to fund the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), which is part of the DHS. However, the fate of the TSA funding remains uncertain as the shutdown continues.

The White House and congressional leaders are expected to engage in further negotiations to resolve the impasse.
