Dan Newhouse (WA-04) released the following statement after voting in support of S. 2, the Secure America Act. This legislation passed the House with a vote of 214-212. "ICE and CBP are critical agencies that help secure our border and deport violent illegal immigrants," said Rep. Newhouse. Newhouse continued, "Across the nation, their agents have apprehended thousands of criminals and repeat offenders—making our streets, cities, and communities safer. We must stand in support of our law enforcement and their important work, and this legislation does just that. As a Member of the Appropriations Committee, I prefer funding federal agencies through the regular appropriations process. However, we must prevent a future lapse in funding for ICE and CBP, which would threaten the safety of our homeland." Background This legislation fully funds CBP, DHS, and ICE through 2029, allowing the agencies to continue securing the border, protecting Americans from illicit drugs, and supporting the brave officers who risk their lives to keep Americans safe from violent criminals and potential terrorists. The bill also provides additional appropriations to DHS to account for any unforeseen costs that ICE and Border Patrol may incur in future years as it carries out its mission to keep Americans safe. ### | 1 | 2026-06-27T21:44:12Z | 2026-06-27T22:11:26Z |
