Trump signs $70 billion bill funding ICE and Border Patrol through end of his term.
President Trump signed the Secure America Act, providing nearly $70 billion to fund Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection through fiscal year 2029. The bill passed Congress along party lines using the budget reconciliation process after Democrats refused to support funding without reforms following the fatal shooting of two protesters in Minneapolis.
