House Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune announced a plan to fully fund the Department of Homeland Security, moving to end the 47-day partial shutdown. Johnson abandoned his earlier opposition and agreed to accept the Senate-passed bill, clearing a path for House passage in the coming days. The deal restores full funding for ICE, CBP, and other DHS functions, avoiding further disruptions to border security and visa processing.
