华盛顿报道 — 旨在结束国土安全部（DHS）38天停摆的参议院谈判周一遭遇新障碍，此前总统特朗普呼吁共和党人坚持通过一项民主党强烈反对的选举法案。
“我强烈建议共和党，不要就任何事情达成协议，”特朗普表示，“我们最重要的是要通过所谓的《SAVE美国法案》。”
要求选民登记时提供公民身份证明、投票时出示照片身份证明的《SAVE美国法案》，早已成为参议院共和党人的心头大患。参议院已就该法案辩论近一周，试图安抚要求绕过60票门槛通过法案的保守派，但参议院多数党领袖约翰·图恩明确表示，目前缺乏足够票数。
周一在田纳西州孟菲斯的活动中，特朗普称《SAVE美国法案》的选民身份和公民身份条款应“融入”国土安全部资金法案。
“我要求共和党参议员立即这么做，”特朗普说，“不必急于投票，别担心复活节，先回家也可以。事实上，为耶稣这样做。”
参议院原计划本周末结束后休会两周，但图恩暗示，参议院可能会留在华盛顿直到停摆问题解决。
上周末，两党一度出现温和乐观情绪，双方承认仍有大量分歧需要弥合。两党议员小组周四和周五与边境问题负责人汤姆·霍曼会面，标志着谈判取得关键进展，但周末几乎无实质进展。

周一参议院复会后，图恩告诉哥伦比亚广播公司新闻，总统将国土安全部资金与选举立法挂钩的要求是谈判中的“变数”。他向记者强调，尽管共和党广泛支持《SAVE美国法案》，但参议院必须确保该法案通过才能重开政府的想法“不现实”，并表示关于国土安全部资金的讨论仍在继续。
随着国土安全部停摆开始对部分机场造成严重影响，谈判力度加大。美国运输安全管理局（TSA）工作人员持续无薪工作，人员短缺导致安检队伍大幅延长，政府被迫派遣移民与海关执法局（ICE）特工前往十多个地点协助缓解压力。民主党虽反对资助移民执法，但多次提议批准TSA及国土安全部其他下属机构的资金。
近期部分共和党人已倾向于为国土安全部非ICE部门提供资金，包括路易斯安那州参议员约翰·肯尼迪。肯尼迪周日告诉哥伦比亚广播公司新闻，“我们应该接受民主党‘除ICE外全面解冻’的提议”，然后通过预算协调程序在无民主党支持的情况下资助移民执法机构。他称“很多人在讨论，但唯一关键的人是我们的多数党领袖”。
图恩周日也对该想法表示开放，称“目前有很多想法在讨论中”，周一补充道这将是一个选项，“我们没有排除任何可能”。
多数党领袖与总统周日讨论了可能的“缓和方案”，但特朗普周日晚间在“真实社交”平台发文称，除非民主党与共和党合作通过选举立法，否则共和党不应与民主党达成协议。
民主党警告白宫必须认真对待谈判。他们数周拒绝与参议院共和党人会面，称白宫可能破坏任何潜在协议。
参议院少数党领袖查克·舒默周一批评总统“试图破坏谈判”，表示“民主党将继续秉持诚意工作”。
“双方整个周末都在沟通，有一些建设性对话，但仍有大量工作要做，民主党已准备好继续谈判，”舒默说。
这位纽约民主党人表示，其党团立场“未变”，希望支付TSA员工工资并与白宫继续会谈。他称原计划周一上午与霍曼会面，但“显然白宫因唐纳德·特朗普的脾气发作取消了此次会面”。
“我们希望唐纳德·特朗普停止破坏谈判，让协商继续下去，”舒默说。

DHS funding talks in limbo after Trump calls on GOP to link bill to SAVE America Act
March 23, 2026 / 4:25 PM EDT / CBS News
Washington — Senate talks aimed at ending the 38-day shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security hit a new roadblock on Monday after President Trump called on Republicans to hold out for passage of an elections bill that Democrats strongly oppose.
“I’m suggesting strongly to the Republican Party, don’t make any deal on anything,” Mr. Trump said. “The most important thing we can have is called the SAVE America Act.”
The SAVE America Act, which would require proof of citizenship to register to vote and photo ID to cast a ballot, has already been a headache for Senate Republicans. The chamber has been debating the measure for nearly a week in an attempt to placate conservatives who have demanded that the Senate maneuver around a 60-vote threshold to pass the bill. But Senate Majority Leader John Thune has been clear that the votes aren’t there.
Speaking at an event in Memphis, Tennessee, on Monday, Mr. Trump said the SAVE America Act’s voter ID and proof of citizenship provisions should be “welded in” to DHS funding.
“I’m requesting that the Republican senators do that immediately,” Mr. Trump said. “You don’t have to take a fast vote, don’t worry about Easter, going home. In fact, make this one for Jesus.”
The Senate is scheduled to leave for a two-week recess at the end of the week. But Thune has suggested the chamber could stay in town until the shutdown is resolved.
Tepid optimism began to emerge among senators late last week that a deal could be possible, with acknowledgement that the two sides still had significant ground to cover. A bipartisan group of senators met Thursday and Friday with border czar Tom Homan. The meetings marked a key step forward as the two sides expressed more willingness to engage. But the weekend showed little progress.

As the chamber reconvened Monday, Thune told CBS News that the president’s request to link the DHS funding to the election legislation was a “wrinkle” in the talks. He outlined to reporters that despite widespread GOP support for the SAVE America Act, the idea that the Senate would have to guarantee the bill’s passage to reopen the government isn’t “realistic.” He said discussions continue over DHS funding.
The ramp-up in talks came as the DHS shutdown began wreaking havoc at some airports. As TSA workers continue to go without pay, staffing issues have worsened, creating long security lines and prompting the administration to send ICE agents to more than a dozen locations to help ease the burden. While Democrats have opposed funding immigration enforcement, they have repeatedly offered to approve funding for TSA and the other agencies that DHS oversees.
Some Republicans have appeared to come around to the idea of funding non-ICE components of DHS in recent days, including Sen. John Kennedy of Louisiana. Kennedy told CBS News on Sunday that “we ought to accept the Democrats’ offer to open everything up but ICE,” before turning to the budget reconciliation process to fund the immigration enforcement agency without help from Democrats. He said “a lot of people are talking about it, but the only person that counts is our majority leader.”
Thune expressed openness to the idea Sunday as well, telling reporters that “there are lots of ideas swirling right now.” He added on Monday that it would be an option and “we aren’t taking any options off the table.”
The majority leader and the president spoke about the possible offramp on Sunday. But Mr. Trump said in a post on Truth Social on Sunday evening that Republicans shouldn’t make a deal with Democrats unless they work with the GOP to pass the elections legislation.
Democrats have warned that the White House must get serious on negotiations. They refused to sit down with Senate Republicans for weeks, saying the White House could dash any agreement that may be reached.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer criticized the president for “trying to sabotage negotiations” on Monday. He said “Democrats are going to keep working in good faith.”
“Both sides talked all weekend long. We had some constructive conversations, but there’s considerably more work to be done, and Democrats are ready to keep negotiating,” Schumer said.
The New York Democrat said his caucus’ position “has not changed,” and that they want to pay TSA workers and meet with the White House to continue talks. He said they were going to meet Monday morning with Homan, but “apparently the White House pulled that meeting because of Donald Trump’s temper tantrum.”
“We hope that Donald Trump will stop derailing these talks and let negotiations continue,” Schumer said.
