Trump rejects Senate proposal to reopen DHS without ICE funding

President Trump has rejected a Senate proposal to reopen the Department of Homeland Security without including funding for Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The decision comes as the partial government shutdown enters its 40th day, with ICE agents now being deployed at airports amid ongoing efforts to restore full operations. The Senate plan would have provided funds for certain agencies like the Transportation Security Administration while excluding ICE, but the White House dismissed it as unacceptable.

Negotiations continue between congressional leaders and the administration to reach a compromise that satisfies both sides. Congressional correspondent Lisa Desjardins reports on the evolving discussions aimed at fully reopening federal agencies. Meanwhile, the prolonged shutdown continues to impact federal workers and services nationwide. The situation remains unresolved as political divisions persist over funding priorities.
