Original Sources for this Claim (2)
All source submissions that originally contained this claim.
Lawmakers left Washington for a weeklong recess despite failing to reach a deal to fund the Department of Homeland Security, seemingly unconcerned with the looming shutdown. Negotiations between Democrats and the White House were ongoing, but significant disagreements remained over immigration enforcement policies.
The Department of Homeland Security shut down due to a funding lapse, though essential functions continue. The shutdown stems from a partisan divide in Congress over immigration enforcement. Employees face working without pay, potentially impacting travel and disaster relief.
