白宫新闻秘书卡罗琳·利维特告诉记者，国会民主党人”让国土安全部（DHS）持续停摆，因为他们更关心非法移民而非美国公民”。

参议院民主党人阻止了共和党人在最后一刻结束国土安全部停摆的尝试，此前共和党拒绝了他们的”不切实际”的反建议。
南达科他州共和党参议员、参议院多数党领袖约翰·桑恩在周三下午迅速否决民主党提议后，强行就国土安全部（DHS）资金法案进行投票。他指责民主党最新的反建议”根本不接近现实”。
“他们很清楚，”桑恩说，”他们提出的要求已经被否决过。所以这看起来就像他们在原地打转。”
周三的临时测试投票旨在看看共和党人能否分裂参议院少数党领袖、纽约州民主党人查克·舒默和参议院民主党人统一阵线对支持自己重新开机关的框架的支持——而民主党人周二已经否决了该框架。

但和之前五次一样，最新的尝试被几乎所有参议院民主党人否决。
共和党人坚持最初的提议，即削减移民和海关执法局（ICE）的资金，以换取重新开放国土安全部伞下的其他机构，包括运输安全管理局（TSA）和联邦紧急事务管理局（FEMA）等。
共和党人已经对民主党没有接受该协议感到愤怒，指出搁置移民执法资金是他们的关键要求之一。他们还指责舒默及其核心小组背离了之前谈判的立场。
尽管如此，参议院民主党人仍在推动对ICE的严格改革，包括要求探员获得司法令状，以及禁止国土安全部探员佩戴口罩。这些条款是添加到共和党框架中的九项总要求之一。特别是这些要求，一直是共和党在停摆期间的坚定红线。

共和党人还一直辩称，如果民主党人想要改革，就必须愿意资助移民执法。
舒默在宣布已向共和党人发送最新提议后不久，在参议院发言中反驳，称他们的指责是”缺乏诚意”，”只会减缓进程”。
“事实上，上周末，民主党人与我们的共和党同事进行了建设性的面对面交谈，”舒默说，”他们——共和党同事——口头承认我们一直在寻求的一些改革是合理的。”
“我们认为在一些改革ICE的方式上可能有前进的道路，以实现一些大家都知道应该在联邦立法中的内容，”他继续说道，”我们认为已经取得了一些进展。但然后共和党人昨天向我们提出的提议中没有包含任何这些内容。”
但俄亥俄州共和党参议员伯尼·莫雷诺（他参与了制定国土安全部框架的白宫会议）指责民主党人”在退缩”。

“如果你真的想直奔主题——把所有脏话都抛开——我们现在的处境是，”莫雷诺说，”民主党人提出了一个提议。想知道是什么提议吗？他们不希望我们驱逐任何非法入境或签证过期的人，除非这个人犯了严重罪行。这就是他们想要的。这显然是疯狂的，因为这是他们打交道的基础。”
桑恩还辩称，共和党人和特朗普政府已经给了民主党人他们想要的大部分东西，包括用新确认的部长马克韦恩·穆林取代前国土安全部部长克里斯蒂·诺姆，减少明尼苏达州的移民行动，并提供其他几项改革。

一些民主党人希望对共和党框架中的资金使用设置额外的防护措施——特别是防止资金在机构内转移并重新用于移民行动。
桑恩表示，这一让步可能有一定空间，但重申民主党人的其他要求”不切实际”。他还表示，共和党人提出另一项反建议”没有意义”。
“老实说，这是我们几周来一直在重复的内容，”桑恩说。

Dems block DHS funding after GOP rejects their counter, Thune says Schumer ‘going in circles’
March 25, 2026 5:04pm EDT / Fox News
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters Democrats in Congress have “kept DHS shut down because they care more about illegal aliens than American citizens.”

Senate Democrats blocked a last-minute attempt by Republicans to end the Homeland Security shutdown after the GOP rejected their “unserious” counteroffer.
Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., forced a vote on the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) funding bill after swiftly killing Democrats’ offer earlier Wednesday afternoon. He accused their latest counter as “not even close to being real.”
“They know better,” Thune said. “They’re asking for things that have already been turned down. So it just seems like they’re going in circles.”
The spur-of-the-moment test vote on Wednesday was designed to see whether Republicans could splinter any support from Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and Senate Democrats’ unified front to support their own framework to reopen the agency, which Democrats already rejected on Tuesday.

But like the five times prior, the latest attempt was blocked by nearly every Senate Democrat.
Republicans are sticking by their initial offer, which would carve out Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) funding in exchange for reopening other agencies under the Homeland Security umbrella, including the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), among others.
Republicans were already fuming that Democrats did not take the deal, noting that sidelining immigration enforcement funding was one of their key demands. They also charged that Schumer and his caucus were backing away from previously negotiated positions.
Still, Senate Democrats are pushing for stringent reforms to ICE, including requiring judicial warrants for agents and banning DHS agents from wearing masks. Those provisions were among nine total demands added to the GOP framework. Those asks, in particular, have been firm red lines for Republicans throughout the shutdown.

Republicans have also consistently argued that if Democrats want reforms, they must be willing to fund immigration enforcement.
Schumer pushed back on the Senate floor shortly after announcing he had sent Republicans the latest offer, calling their accusations “bad faith” that “will only slow things down.”
“In fact, over the weekend, Democrats had constructive conversations in person with our Republican colleagues,” Schumer said. “They — the Republican colleagues — conceded that some of the reforms, verbally, that we have been looking for, they said these make sense.”
“We thought there might be a path forward on some of the ways to reform ICE and to get some of the things everybody knows ought to be in federal legislation,” he continued. “We thought there had been some progress. But then Republicans sent us their offer yesterday, and it contained none of what had been talked about.”
But Sen. Bernie Moreno, R-Ohio, who was part of the White House meeting that produced the DHS framework, accused Democrats of “backing up.”

“If you really want to cut to the chase — take all the [expletive] aside — here’s where we’re at,” Moreno said. “Democrats made an offer. Want to know what the offer is? They don’t want us to deport anybody who entered this country illegally or overstayed their visa unless that person committed a serious crime. That’s what they want. That’s obviously insane, because that’s the base that they deal with.”
Thune also argued that Republicans and the Trump administration have given Democrats much of what they wanted, including replacing former DHS Secretary Kristi Noem with newly confirmed Secretary Markwayne Mullin, ramping down immigration operations in Minnesota, and providing several other reforms.

Some Democrats want additional guardrails on how funding in the GOP framework would be handled — specifically to prevent money from being shifted within the agency and redirected to immigration operations.
Thune said there could be some room for that concession but reiterated that Democrats’ other demands were “unserious.” He also said there was “no point” in Republicans offering another counterproposal.
“This is, honestly, retreading ground that we’ve been treading for weeks,” Thune said.
