华盛顿讯——众议院周三通过了参议院此前批准的预算计划,这是共和党战略的第一步,该战略将使共和党能够在无需民主党协助的情况下,为特朗普总统任期剩余时间内的联邦移民执法机构提供资金。
参议院共和党人上周公布并通过了该预算蓝图。共和党正努力赶在特朗普设定的六月截止日前,为移民海关执法局(ICE)和边境巡逻队提供资金,并结束自二月以来导致国土安全部停摆的拨款中断状况。
该决议以215票对211票在众议院获得通过。它指示负责监督ICE和边境巡逻队的委员会起草相关立法,为这两个机构提供约700亿美元的资金。
通过该预算决议仅意味着议员们可以开始着手起草为这些机构提供资金的立法,参众两院后续仍需对此进行投票批准。
共和党计划通过另一套单独的拨款流程为国土安全部的其他部门提供资金。
周六白宫记者协会晚宴枪击事件发生后,共和党方面强调了全额拨款国土安全部的新紧迫性。民主党则认为,如果众议院共和党领导人就参议院三月份以两党支持通过的法案进行投票,国土安全部的大部分机构可以立即获得资金。
在周二给议员们的一份备忘录中,美国行政管理和预算局警告称,国土安全部“很快将耗尽关键运营资金,将关键人员和运营置于风险之中”。特朗普此前曾指示该部门在停摆期间筹集可用资金支付所有人员工资,但该备忘录表示,政府从五月起将无法再支付人员薪资。
周三的投票并非没有共和党内部的争执。原本预计会快速完成的投票演变为长达数小时的拉锯战,一些众议院共和党议员因一项与农业法案无关的问题发起了反抗。
民主党人拒绝在不进行改革的情况下为ICE和边境巡逻队提供资金。参众两院共和党人在是否将国土安全部中与移民执法无关的部门拨款拆分出来这一问题上存在分歧,这进一步延长了僵局。
三月底出现了一个解决方案,当时参议院通过了一项为国土安全部大部分机构提供资金的法案,但ICE和边境巡逻队不在此列。参议院共和党人计划随后通过预算协调程序为移民执法机构提供资金,这一程序允许他们在无需民主党支持的情况下通过拨款法案。
众议院民主党人表示,他们愿意支持参议院通过的为国土安全部大部分机构提供资金的法案,但共和党领导层拒绝将该法案提交众议院全院投票,因为该法案面临保守派的反对,保守派希望将选民身份证要求附加在该法案中作为整体法案的一部分。相反,众议院共和党人通过了一项为该部门下所有机构提供60天资金的法案,将问题踢回参议院,而参议院需要获得若干民主党议员的支持才能打破阻挠议事。
共和党人重新回到了双轨拨款计划:通过协调程序为移民执法机构提供资金,通过传统拨款流程为国土安全部的其他部门提供资金。
协调程序允许参议院以简单多数票推进具有直接预算影响的立法,而非通常所需的60票,这为共和党提供了绕过民主党反对的途径。
“我们被迫借助民主党人使用协调程序,以确保这两个重要机构获得资金,”参议院多数党领袖、南达科他州共和党人约翰·图恩上周表示。
众议院议长、路易斯安那州共和党人迈克·约翰逊表示,众议院计划先推进协调程序相关法案,然后再对参议院三月份通过的法案进行投票。该法案为国土安全部的其他部门提供资金,包括运输安全管理局、特勤局、海岸警卫队和联邦紧急事务管理局。
但一些众议院共和党人对这项范围更广的国土安全部法案存在异议,称其中包含了将移民执法资金归零的条款。
“它存在一些有问题的措辞,因为起草过程过于仓促,”约翰逊周一表示,并补充称他们有一个“修改版本”,将“对参众两院都好得多”。
图恩回应了约翰逊对这项更广泛法案的批评,称参议院“已尽一切努力确保所有项目都获得适当拨款”。
约翰逊驳斥了有关众议院共和党人与参议院同僚和白宫存在分歧的说法。
“每个人都清楚我们正在做什么,”约翰逊周三表示。“我们都是一个团队。我们正在通力合作。我两小时前刚与图恩领袖会面。他完全清楚我们的计划。”

House adopts Senate-approved budget resolution to unlock ICE funding

Washington— The House on Wednesday adopted a Senate-approved budget plan, the first step in a strategy that would allow Republicans to fund federal immigration agencies through the rest of President Trump’s term without the help of Democrats.
Senate Republicans unveiled and adopted the budget blueprint last week. Republicans are trying to meet Mr. Trump’s June deadline to fund Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Border Patrol, and end the funding lapse that has shut down the Department of Homeland Security since February.
The resolution cleared the House in a 215 to 211 vote. It directs the committees that oversee ICE and Border Patrol to draft legislation to deliver about $70 billion to the agencies.
Adoption of the budget plan simply allows lawmakers to begin their work crafting legislation to fund the agencies, which both chambers will later need to approve.
Republicans are planning to fund other parts of DHS on a separate track.
Republicans have stressed a renewed urgency to fully fund the department after the White House Correspondents’ Dinner shooting on Saturday. Democrats have argued that most of DHS could be funded immediately if House GOP leaders held a vote on legislation that the Senate passed with bipartisan support in March.
In a memo to lawmakers on Tuesday, the Office of Management and Budget warned that DHS “will soon run out of critical operating funds, placing essential personnel and operations at risk.” Mr. Trump had directed the department to find available funding to pay all personnel during the shutdown, but the memo said the administration will be unable to pay personnel beginning in May.
Wednesday’s vote did not come without GOP infighting. What was expected to be a quick vote turned into an hourslong saga as some House Republicans launched a rebellion over an issue with an unrelated farm bill.
Democrats have refused to fund ICE and Border Patrol without reforms. A divide between House and Senate Republicans on whether to split off funding for DHS components that are unrelated to immigration enforcement has further prolonged the impasse.
An off-ramp appeared at the end of March, when the Senate approved a measure to fund most of the department, except for ICE and Border Patrol. Senate Republicans planned to then fund immigration enforcement through budget reconciliation, a process that allows them to pass spending bills without Democratic support.
House Democrats said they were willing to support the Senate-passed legislation to fund most of DHS, but GOP leadership refused to put it on the House floor for a vote since it faced opposition from conservatives, who wanted it wrapped into a single bill with voter ID requirements attached. Instead, House Republicans passed a measure to fund every agency under the department for 60 days, punting the issue back to the Senate, where a handful of Democratic votes are needed to overcome the filibuster.
Republicans circled back on the two-pronged plan to fund immigration agencies through reconciliation and the rest of DHS through the traditional appropriations process.
Reconciliation allows the Senate to advance legislation with direct budgetary consequences with a simple majority rather than the 60 votes typically needed, giving Republicans a path around Democratic opposition.
“We have been forced by the Democrats to use the reconciliation process to ensure that these two important agencies are funded,” Senate Majority Leader John Thune, a South Dakota Republican, said last week.
House Speaker Mike Johnson, a Louisiana Republican, said the lower chamber plans to move the reconciliation measure first before voting on the bill the Senate passed in March. That bill funds the rest of DHS, including the Transportation Security Administration, the Secret Service, the Coast Guard and the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
But some House Republicans have issues with the broader DHS bill, saying it includes language that zeroes out funding for immigration enforcement.
“It has some problematic language because it was haphazardly drafted,” Johnson said Monday, adding that they have a “modified version” that will be “much better for both chambers.”
Thune responded to Johnson’s criticism of the broader measure, saying the Senate “did everything we can to ensure that everything is appropriately funded.”
Johnson pushed back on suggestions House Republicans are at odds with their Senate counterparts and the White House.
“Everybody understands what we’re doing,” Johnson said Wednesday. “We’re all one team. We’re working together. I met with Leader Thune two hours ago. He knows exactly what we’re doing.”
