参议院共和党人希望本周敲定其党派式移民执法拨款方案的第一步,但其他立法障碍和党内分歧可能会拖慢进程。
共和党人与唐纳德·特朗普总统一致认为,党派预算和解程序是绕过民主党对移民海关执法局(ICE)和边境巡逻队拨款阻挠的关键。
但为了赶上即将到来的截止日期,参议院共和党人大多希望尽可能严格限制法案范围,避免程序中出现任何波折。共和党领导层的主要计划是,通过当前的和解法案为未来三年的移民执法提供资金,并将其他议题留待未来的法案另行处理。

南卡罗来纳州联邦参议员林赛·格雷厄姆将以一项预算决议启动该程序,该决议将作为共和党推进和解进程的指导文件。该决议将指定参议院司法委员会和参议院国土安全与政府事务委员会作为负责该程序的主要委员会。
“我希望最早下周就能推进相关工作,”格雷厄姆在议员们离开华盛顿度周末前表示。
尽管理论上该决议尽可能精简,但参议院和众议院的其他议员希望在法案中加入更多内容。
得克萨斯州联邦参议员特德·克鲁兹(共和党)上周对福克斯商业频道的拉里· Kudlow表示,他正呼吁共和党人在和解程序中“加大手笔”。克鲁兹表示,他希望为ICE和边境巡逻队提供十年拨款,并更广泛地推出减税和负担能力相关措施。
参议院共和党誓言“单独行动”为ICE拨款,民主党则坚持推动政府停摆

“目前领导层的计划是推出一项精简至极的‘瘦身’法案,仅为ICE和海关与边境保护局提供资金。我认为这是目光短浅、缺乏远见的,”克鲁兹说。
参议院多数党领袖约翰·图恩(南达科他州共和党)重申,即将推出的法案必须“符合我们当前的目标范围”,但他也承认,其他共和党人将当前的法案视为可以纳入其他多项议题的载体。
“我们还有其他可用的法案载体,我们拭目以待,但目前的计划是保持法案紧凑。”他继续说道。
共和党加快推进ICE与边境巡逻队拨款法案,优先级堆积、分歧显现

在法案中增加更多内容的问题在于,需要更多委员会参与其中,就像特朗普的“宏伟法案”起草过程那样——当时参众两院所有委员会都参与其中,法案在参议院仅以微弱优势通过。
众议院共和党人与克鲁兹立场一致——他们希望扩大法案规模,利用华盛顿的共和党 trifecta(三权全控)优势,为秋季的中期选举造势。
参众两院在争取结束美国历史上最长停摆的过程中存在拉锯。众议院共和党人不倾向于通过参议院为国土安全部大部分机构拨款的法案(该法案未包含ICE和部分CBP的拨款),除非和解法案获得通过。
但这可能会进一步延长政府停摆时间,而参议院共和党人则认为,在他们暗中敲定移民执法拨款细节的同时,应当先重新开放国土安全部。

北达科他州联邦参议员约翰·霍文(共和党)对福克斯新闻数字频道表示,在法案中增加更多内容会拖慢进程。
“每增加一项内容,就会多涉及一个管辖权委员会,增加复杂性,也就多花时间,”霍文说。“所以如果他们希望这项工作快速推进——这也是我们目前正在努力的方向——那就不应该添加额外内容,对吗?”

Senate GOP readying party-line funding bill despite divisions, anger at the House

Adding more issues to the reconciliation package would slow the process, Republicans warn

Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., analyzes the Democratic strategy to limit President Donald Trump’s war powers regarding Iran, calling it a ‘delay tactic.’ She emphasizes confronting Iran’s nuclear ambitions and its role in funding terrorist groups like Hamas. Blackburn also criticizes a Michigan Senate candidate for his anti-Israel comments.

Senate Republicans hope to nail down the first step of their party-line funding package for immigration operations this week, but other legislative obstacles and divisions could slow the process.
Republicans and President Donald Trump are in agreement that the partisan budget reconciliation process is the key to bypassing Democrats’ blockade of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Border Patrol funding.
But in order to hit that fast-approaching deadline, Senate Republicans largely want to keep the package as narrowly tailored as possible to avoid any hiccups in the process. The main plan from Republican leadership is to fund immigration operations for the next three years with the current reconciliation package and look to a future bill as a later landing spot for other issues.

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., will kick off the process with a budget resolution that will act as the guiding document for the GOP as they push forward into reconciliation. That resolution will tee up the Senate Judiciary Committee and the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee as the main panels running the process.
“I hope we can get moving on it as early as next week,” Graham said before lawmakers left Washington, D.C., for the weekend.
Despite keeping the resolution, in theory, as slim as possible, other lawmakers in the upper chamber and in the House want more added to the package.
Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, told FOX Business’ Larry Kudlow last week that he was making the case that Republicans should “go big” on reconciliation. Cruz said he wants a decade of funding for ICE and Border Patrol and, more broadly, tax cuts and affordability measures.

“Right now, leadership’s plan is to have the skinny, anorexic bill that just has funding for ICE and Customs and Border Patrol. I think that is short-minded, short-sighted,” Cruz said.
Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., reiterated that the forthcoming package would have to “fall within the contours of what we’re trying to do here,” but he acknowledged that other Republicans viewed the current package as a vehicle that could fit several other issues.
“We have another vehicle available, we’ll see, but right now, keep it tight,” he continued. “That’s the plan.”

Part of the problem with adding more to the package is that more committees would have to get involved, like during the crafting of Trump’s “big, beautiful bill,” which involved every panel in the Senate and House and narrowly survived in the upper chamber.
And House Republicans are on the same page as Cruz — they want to supersize the bill to take advantage of the GOP’s trifecta in Washington, D.C., ahead of the midterm elections in the fall.
It’s a give-and-take between the chambers in their quest to end the longest shutdown in history. House Republicans aren’t keen on passing the Senate’s bill to fund the bulk of DHS, minus funding for ICE and chunks of CBP, until the reconciliation package passes.
But that could further prolong the shutdown, and Republicans in the upper chamber argue that DHS should be reopened while they hammer out the details for funding immigration operations in the background.

Sen. John Hoeven, R-N.D., told Fox News Digital that adding more to the package would slow down the process.
“Every time you add stuff to it, you add committees of jurisdiction, you add complexity, and you add more time,” Hoeven said. “So if they want it expeditiously, which is what we’re working on right now, then you wouldn’t add stuff, right?”
