Les démocrates du Sénat bloquent le financement du DHS alors que le shutdown impacte les travailleurs de la TSA

Un shutdown gouvernemental affectant le Département de la Sécurité intérieure a conduit des centaines d’agents de la TSA à démissionner et à des files d’attente plus longues aux aéroports, au milieu de négociations au point mort au Sénat. Le sénateur John Fetterman, seul démocrate soutenant le financement actuel, a critiqué l’impasse qui punit les travailleurs de première ligne sans affecter l’exécution des lois sur l’immigration. Un vote test pour financer le département a échoué 51-46 jeudi.

La fermeture du Département de la Sécurité intérieure (DHS), qui supervise des agences incluant l’Administration de la sécurité des transports (TSA), la Garde côtière, l’Agence fédérale de gestion des situations d’urgence (FEMA), Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) et Customs and Border Protection, entre dans sa troisième semaine sans résolution. Les négociations au Sénat sur les tactiques d’application fédérale de l’immigration sont au point mort, les démocrates exigeant des changements tels que la fin des exigences de port du masque pour les agents et l’exigence de mandats judiciaires pour de nombreuses arrestations liées à l’immigration.

The Senate passed a bipartisan bill early Friday to fund most Department of Homeland Security operations except ICE and Border Patrol, but House Republicans signaled they will reject it. President Donald Trump signed an executive order the same day to pay TSA agents affected by the ongoing partial shutdown. The move came as airport security lines lengthened due to unpaid workers calling out or quitting.

The House of Representatives on April 30 passed a measure funding most Department of Homeland Security operations, ending a 76-day agency shutdown—the longest in U.S. history—that began in mid-February. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) remain unfunded amid ongoing partisan fights over immigration reforms.

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.

Senate Republicans left Washington without final action on a package aimed at boosting funding for U.S. immigration enforcement agencies ahead of a June 1 target date tied to President Donald Trump’s request. The delay comes amid internal GOP resistance and Democratic criticism of a new roughly $1.776 billion “Anti-Weaponization Fund” announced by the Justice Department as part of a settlement involving Trump’s lawsuit over leaked tax information.

Congressional Republicans are departing Washington for a weeklong recess without passing a bill to fund immigration enforcement for three years. The plan stalled over disagreements with President Trump regarding a nearly $2 billion Anti-Weaponization Fund and other demands. Lawmakers will not return until after the June 1 deadline.
