Senate-Passed $70 Billion ICE/CBP Reconciliation Funding Bill Awaits House Vote — Week of June 8
On June 7, 2026, the $70 billion immigration enforcement reconciliation package — which the Senate passed 52-47 on June 5 after an 18-hour 'vote-a-rama' — was awaiting a House floor vote tentatively scheduled for the week of June 8. The bill funds ICE and Customs and Border Protection operations for three years through the end of Trump's second term, covering detention capacity, deportation flights, technology infrastructure, and border wall construction. An amendment stripping the controversial 'anti-weaponization' fund (which would have allowed political investigations of opponents) was defeated in the Senate, remaining in the final text. Senate Republicans were unanimous except Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), who voted against it. All Democrats voted against the bill except Sen. Michael Bennet (D-CO), who was absent. House Republican leadership canceled Friday votes June 6 due to attendance concerns ahead of the upcoming recess window, making the week of June 8 the final realistic window for passage before Congress breaks. Failure to pass the House would force Senate Republicans to restart the reconciliation process from scratch. The bill is considered a top Trump second-term legislative priority alongside the already-signed 'One Big Beautiful Bill.'
