Senate Democrats oppose funding after Minneapolis man shot by border patrol
WASHINGTON, DC (Fox News) — Senate Democrats are poised to reject a DHS funding bill after a fatal shooting involving a border patrol agent in Minnesota.
## Senate Democrats Rebel Against DHS Funding Package
Led by Chuck Schumer, Democrats plan to vote against the legislation, increasing the odds of a government shutdown. Schumer criticized Republicans for not addressing ICE abuses in the bill.
## House Jams Senate Over Funding Package
The bill includes full funding for the agency with restrictions. Any changes to the package would have to go through the House, which is on break until February 2, raising the likelihood of a partial shutdown.
## Senate Advances $174B Package Amid DHS Funding Fight
The Senate passed a bill combining various funding packages, which now awaits Senate consideration. House GOP leaders rule out returning early to address any changes.
If a shutdown occurs, essential services like payment to active duty troops, air traffic controllers, and border patrol agents could be impacted.
