Senate Passes DHS Funding Bill While House GOP Rejects Deal

This legislative split highlights the deep partisan divide in Congress, with House Republicans signaling their intent to reject the Senate deal in favor of a shorter stopgap measure. The outcome underscores the ongoing political friction between the chambers as the government shutdown nears its conclusion.
