YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Markwayne Mullin testifies before the Senate Appropriations Committee panel on President Trump's fiscal 2027 budget request as GOP lawmakers eye a reconciliation bill to fund the department.

Senate Republicans hit a roadblock on advancing the spending package as criticism mounted over the Justice Department's nearly $1.8 billion "anti-weaponization fund." Earlier this week, the Trump administration agreed to scrap it as lawmakers demanded more information about the fund, which came out of a settlement between Trump and the IRS.

The White House is seeking $63 billion in budget authority for DHS for 2027, a $2.2 billion decrease from 2026. The request comes just months after a record-long government shutdown sparked by protests over the administration's robust immigration enforcement agenda.
