President Donald Trump signed a $70 billion homeland security bill on June 10, 2026, after it passed the House with a narrow margin. The bill aims to fund the Department of Homeland Security and provide resources to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Border Patrol. During a press conference in the Oval Office, Trump expressed support for the funding, stating it would aid domestic law enforcement and efforts against child exploitation. He criticized congressional Democrats for attempting to block funding, claiming they sought to open the borders. Trump also addressed former President Joe Biden's immigration policies and mentioned a reduction in fentanyl crossings. The bill faced initial resistance from some conservatives who wanted to codify Trump's immigration executive orders. All Senate Democrats and Alaska Republican Lisa Murkowski voted against the bill, while House Democratic leadership criticized the funding for ICE, citing concerns about the agency's actions in communities. The bill's passage follows previous funding challenges and a temporary shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security over immigration enforcement issues.
