Congressional Republicans face multiple legislative deadlines including DHS funding, FISA reauthorization, and a farm bill
House Republicans are under pressure to resolve a 72-day DHS funding standoff, pass FISA Section 702 reauthorization, and advance a farm bill during a single legislative week. Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune are publicly clashing over how to modify the Senate-passed DHS appropriations bill to secure House votes. A shooting at the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner has added urgency, as DHS staff, including Secret Service agents, face imminent missed paychecks after a $10 billion reserve fund nears depletion.
