米下院、国土安全保障省の76日間の閉鎖を一部解除 ICEとCBPは除外

米下院は4月30日、国土安全保障省(DHS)の大部分の業務に対する予算措置を可決し、2月中旬から続いていた同省の76日間にわたる閉鎖を終了させた。これは米国史上最長の閉鎖期間となった。なお、移民法改正をめぐる党派間の対立が続いているため、移民税関捜査局(ICE)と税関・国境警備局(CBP)には引き続き予算が充てられていない。

下院は声決により、3月下旬に上院が支持した計画を承認し、米運輸保安庁(TSA)やシークレットサービスなどの機関の業務を再開させた。今回の措置は、2月初旬の短期的な暫定予算が失効した後に続いた閉鎖を終了させるものとなった。この閉鎖は、ミネアポリスで市民のレネ・グッド氏とアレックス・プレッティ氏が死亡した連邦捜査当局による「オペレーション・メトロ・サージ」に関連して長期化していた。身体装着型カメラの義務化、顔を覆うマスクの禁止、司法令状の取得などを求める民主党の要求に対し、共和党は「SAVE法」の推進などで対抗し、意見が対立していた。ICEとCBPについては別途手続きが進められる見通しである。FOXニュースやNPRの報道によると、今回の措置により、無給のTSA職員によるストライキや空港での長い待ち行列といった混乱が回避されることになる。

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.

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.
