The House of Representatives has voted 217-214 to partially fund the government and end the partial shutdown.
The bill now heads to Trump’s desk, and he is expected to sign it today.
21 Republicans voted against the bill, including Andy Biggs of Arizona, Lauren Boebert of Colorado, Josh Brecheen of Oklahoma, Tim Burchett of Tennessee, Eric Burlison of Missouri, Kat Cammack of Florida, Eli Crane of Arizona, Byron Donalds of Florida, Randy Fine of Florida, Brandon Gill of Texas, Anna Paulina Luna of Florida, Thomas Massie of Kentucky, Cory Mills of Florida, Andy Ogles of Tennessee, Scott Perry of Pennsylvania, Chip Roy of Texas, David Schweikert of Arizona, Keith Self of Texas, Victoria Spartz of Indiana, Greg Steube of Florida, and William Timmons of South Carolina.
21 Democrats also voted in favor.
The bill only funds the Department of Homeland Security until February 13.
Democrats are demanding reforms to ICE including unmasking agents, forcing them to wear body cameras during immigration, and forcing them to obtain warrants from a judge as opposed to administrative warrants against criminal illegal aliens.
On Monday, Kristi Noem announced that the Trump Administration has already partially caved to Democrats’ demands, forcing ICE agents in Minneapolis to immediately wear body-worn cameras, and body cameras will be worn by DHS law enforcement across the country once funding is available. Hopefully, this will show what kind of circumstances ICE agents face when anti-ICE radicals attack them, but it will surely bring more scrutiny to our brave American heroes as they attempt to remove violent criminals from the country.
I just spoke with @RealTomHoman @ICEDirector @CBPCommissioner. Effective immediately we are deploying body cameras to every officer in the field in Minneapolis.
As funding is available, the body camera program will be expanded nationwide. We will rapidly acquire and deploy body…

House Speaker Mike Johnson said he plans to negotiate with Democrats to have the Department of Homeland Security funded before funding lapses.
Per CBS:
Johnson told reporters that any attempt by Democrats to hold up long-term funding for DHS over objections to immigration enforcement would be futile, because ICE and CBP received an influx of money in last year’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act. He said the agencies that would be affected carry out important services like disaster aid and airport security.
“So they have enough funding to go for the next few years,” he said of immigration agencies. “So what they will be tying up, if the Democrats choose to close the government, is these very essential services for everything else – FEMA, Coast Guard, TSA and other aspects of national security.”
The legislation passed last year included $75 billion for ICE and $65 billion for CBP, well beyond their annual allotments.
“This is no time to play games with that funding,” Johnson said. “We hope that they will operate in good faith over the next 10 days.”
As The Gateway Pundit reported, President Trump on Monday called for Republicans to pass the Senate-passed funding deal without any changes.
“There can be NO CHANGES at this time. We will work together in good faith to address the issues that have been raised, but we cannot have another long, pointless, and destructive Shutdown that will hurt our Country so badly — One that will not benefit Republicans or Democrats. I hope everyone will vote, YES!” Trump said.
