URGES-SENATE DEMS-FUND DHS
This House resolution urges Senate Democrats to support House Republican funding measures for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). It directly affects Senate Democrats by calling for them to vote in favor of H.R. 7147, which would provide funding for DHS agencies including ICE, CBP, and TSA. The document states that DHS remains partially unfunded due to disagreements over immigration reforms and notes that some workers are required to work without pay during funding lapses. The resolution highlights specific DHS functions such as border security, airport screening, and child protection, while requesting copies be sent to Senate Democrats. This is a non-binding resolution that expresses the House's position rather than creating new laws or funding.
