La Chambre met partiellement fin à 76 jours de fermeture du DHS, excluant l'ICE et le CBP

La Chambre des représentants a adopté, le 30 avril, une mesure finançant la majeure partie des opérations du département de la Sécurité intérieure (DHS), mettant fin à une fermeture de 76 jours — la plus longue de l'histoire des États-Unis — qui avait débuté mi-février. Les services d'Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) et de Customs and Border Protection (CBP) restent sans financement dans le contexte des débats partisans persistants sur les réformes de l'immigration.

Par un vote à main levée, la Chambre a approuvé un plan soutenu par le Sénat depuis fin mars, permettant la réouverture d'agences comme la TSA et le Secret Service. Cette décision fait suite à une solution de financement temporaire adoptée début février qui a expiré, prolongeant ainsi la fermeture liée aux interventions policières fédérales meurtrières à Minneapolis (l'opération Metro Surge, ayant entraîné la mort des citoyens Renee Good et Alex Pretti). Les exigences des démocrates concernant les caméras-piétons, l'interdiction des masques et les mandats judiciaires se sont heurtées à la résistance des républicains, notamment leurs pressions en faveur du SAVE Act. Un processus distinct est attendu pour l'ICE et le CBP. Selon des rapports de Fox News et de NPR, cette mesure permet d'éviter de nouvelles perturbations, telles que les longues files d'attente causées par les agents de la TSA non rémunérés.

House Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune announced a deal on Wednesday to fund most of the Department of Homeland Security through September, while securing three years of funding for ICE and Border Patrol separately via budget reconciliation. The move, backed by President Trump, aims to bypass Democratic votes and end the record 47-day shutdown. Congress could act as early as Thursday despite being on recess.

The Department of Homeland Security faces a partial shutdown starting Friday night as Congress failed to extend its funding amid disputes over immigration enforcement reforms. Democrats are demanding changes following recent incidents involving ICE and CBP agents, while Republicans criticize the proposals as excessive. Agencies like TSA and FEMA will be affected, though ICE remains funded separately.

A limited shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security began early Saturday after Congress failed to extend DHS funding before a midnight deadline, a dispute driven by Democrats’ demands for new guardrails on federal immigration enforcement following two fatal shootings in Minneapolis. Most of the federal government remains funded through Sept. 30, but hundreds of thousands of DHS employees face delayed pay and disruptions to agencies such as TSA, FEMA and the Coast Guard.

As the partial Department of Homeland Security shutdown—now in its second month since starting February 14—affects unpaid TSA workers and causes airport chaos, President Trump threatens to deploy ICE agents unless Democrats fund the agency. Elon Musk offers to cover TSA salaries amid the impasse.

Senator Bernie Sanders was seen boarding a first-class flight from Reagan National Airport on Friday afternoon, shortly after the Senate passed a partial Department of Homeland Security funding bill that the House later rejected. President Donald Trump criticized the Senate measure, calling it inappropriate, as the partial shutdown extended into its record-breaking phase. The Senate has adjourned for a two-week recess with no plans to reconvene before April 13.

Rep. Bennie Thompson of Mississippi, the top Democrat on the House Homeland Security Committee, said Democrats could be “absolutely” willing to risk another Department of Homeland Security funding lapse at the end of September if Republicans do not accept changes to immigration enforcement, including limits on mask-wearing and a judicial-warrant requirement for certain arrests.

The Transportation Security Administration announced that its PreCheck program will continue operating despite an initial announcement suspending it amid a partial U.S. government shutdown. The shutdown, which began on February 14, 2026, stems from disputes over Department of Homeland Security funding and immigration policies. While Global Entry's status remains unclear, the decision aims to manage staffing constraints without fully halting expedited services.
