Jon Husted (R-Ohio) released the following statement after the Senate voted to pass the Secure America Act, a reconciliation bill to fund certain federal law enforcement agencies. “Under the Biden administration, millions of criminal illegal immigrants flooded our borders and entered our country completely unchecked. Ohioans expect their government to enforce the rule of law, deport criminals, secure the border and keep their communities safe, and that’s exactly what this bill will do. I have consistently voted to fully fund federal law enforcement because it is critical they have the tools and resources needed to do their jobs safely. The lapse in funding, which also created a partial government shutdown, was unnecessary and hurtful. Law enforcement officers put their lives on the line to keep our communities safe, and they deserve to be fully equipped and paid for their service,” said Husted. The bill includes funding for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) through 2029. Background: The Department of Homeland (DHS) faced a partial funding lapse for 76 days, resulting in the longest shutdown in U.S. history, because Senate Democrats would not support the final FY26 appropriations bill that funded DHS. President Donald Trump signed the DHS appropriations bill into law to reopen the government. This version excluded funding for ICE and CBP. | 1 | 2026-06-06T06:16:30Z | 2026-06-06T06:17:47Z |
