Freedom Caucus calls for full DHS funding in GOP-only bill, rejecting Trump-endorsed plan
Quick Insights
The Bottom Line
The House Freedom Caucus rejected President Trump's DHS funding plan, proposing a GOP-only bill instead.
AI Summary
The House Freedom Caucus on Tuesday called for full Department of Homeland Security (DHS) funding through a GOP-only budget reconciliation bill. This move directly rejects a two-step funding plan for DHS that President Trump had endorsed, which Republican leaders had proposed. The Trump-backed plan aimed to fund the bulk of DHS, including the Coast Guard, TSA, and FEMA, through a bipartisan approach. The Freedom Caucus's stance indicates internal Republican division over federal spending strategy and the path forward for critical agency funding. This creates a challenge for Republican leaders seeking to unify the party on budget matters.
What's Being Done
