2:10:46Now PlayingHomeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem will testify Tuesday morning before the Senate on the department’s fiscal 2026 budget request.
Noem’s remarks before the Senate Homeland Security Committee come as the Trump administration works to implement President Trump’s robust immigration and border agenda. From vowing to significantly limit the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to advocating for charges and censures against Democrats who attended a protest earlier this month in New Jersey — the secretary has become a force behind Trump’s efforts to crack down on illegal immigration.
In the budget request, including additional funds from reconciliation, the department seeks to finish construction of the border wall, advance border security technology, modernize the Coast Guard fleet, enhance Secret Service protection and bolster state and local capacity to secure areas around key events — such as 2026 World Cup and the 2028 Olympic Games.
The hearing is scheduled to begin at 9:30 a.m. EDT.
