US Senate passes US$70 billion ICE funding; fails to ban ‘anti-weaponisation’ fund
The US Senate passed a bill providing the Department of Homeland Security with an additional US$70 billion for immigration enforcement, with a 52-47 vote and no Democratic support. The bill does not include a provision to ban a US$1.8 billion 'anti-weaponisation' fund that could compensate Trump's political allies for allegations.
