华盛顿讯 — 距离国土安全部部分停摆近一个月，由于移民执法机构改革问题的僵局愈演愈烈，参议院将于周四就一项资助该部门的法案再次进行投票。
自今年1月联邦探员在明尼苏达州枪杀亚历克斯·普雷蒂（Alex Pretti）和蕾妮·古德（Renee Good）以来，民主党人一直阻挠国土安全部（DHS）的所有资金拨款，坚持要求对移民与海关执法局（ICE）和海关与边境保护局（CBP）进行改革。民主党人和共和党人都表示，双方远未达成协议。
“我们正在进行谈判，但距离达成协议还很遥远，”夏威夷州民主党参议员布莱恩·沙茨（Brian Schatz）周三表示。
随着停摆的影响开始显现，双方近几日互相指责：机场排起了长长的安检队伍，美国运输安全管理局（TSA）特工本周将首次无法领取全额工资，缺勤率翻倍，数百名TSA员工已经辞职。
“[民主党人]本周拒绝与我们坐下来谈判，拒绝了，”阿拉巴马州共和党参议员凯蒂·布里特（Katie Britt）周二对记者说，“这实际上很荒谬。”
共和党人声称民主党人不愿坐到谈判桌前，指责他们拒绝了白宫最近提出的会面请求。
但参议院少数党领袖查克·舒默（Chuck Schumer）告诉哥伦比亚广播公司新闻：“这纯属胡扯。”他表示，民主党人“一直在与白宫保持沟通”，并且“在来回交流”。
“这是个实质性问题，”舒默说，“白宫在一些美国人希望的事情上不肯让步——比如搜查令、面罩相关政策——就是这么简单。”
民主党人试图限制移民执法人员佩戴口罩，要求他们出示身份证件并使用随身摄像头。他们还要求禁止特工在没有司法搜查令的情况下进入私人财产，以及进行其他政策变革。
周三，参议员们将这场辩论带到了参议院全体会议上。民主党人试图以一致同意的方式通过一项法案，为国土安全部监管的其他机构提供资金，包括运输安全管理局（TSA）、联邦紧急事务管理局（FEMA）和海岸警卫队。共和党人对此予以阻挠，并提出了一项临时延长国土安全部所有机构资金的法案，以争取更多谈判时间。民主党人再次否决了这一法案。

“我们正在努力达成一项协议，让我们能够为所有机构提供资金——正如民主党人所说的那样——同时进行ICE的改革，”在双方激烈交锋中，情绪激动的参议院多数党领袖约翰·图恩（John Thune）在参议院发言中表示。
辩论中，共和党人指出，最新的提案是白宫在10多天前提出的，同时谴责民主党人在谈判中的姿态。图恩称，他看过白宫的提议文件，声称这比民主党人可能预期的“更进一步”。
“这是一场片面的谈判，白宫提出了一项提案，参议院共和党人多次表示，‘我们准备好与参议院民主党人坐下来谈’，而参议院民主党人……却说，‘抱歉，我们还没准备好谈’，”图恩说。
参议院最高民主党拨款议员、华盛顿州参议员帕蒂·默里（Patty Murray）回应多数党领袖时表示：“仅让几个成员谈一谈无法解决我们需要从白宫那里获得明确理解的情况。”
“我愿意和大家交谈，但我不愿意坐在一个房间里，喝杯咖啡，做出一些让步，然后斯蒂芬·米勒（Stephen Miller）可能会推翻我们所有人达成的协议，”默里说。
关于白宫的提议，默里表示“高层之间仍在持续交流”。但她表示，现在需要白宫“非常明确地”表明有人愿意谈判，这个人“了解全国各地，特别是明尼阿波利斯发生的情况——那里有两个人被谋杀了。”
“如果我们能听到这些话，我认为我们就有达成共识的可能，”她说。
周四的投票是在上周该法案第三次未能推进之后进行的。
当被问及民主党人需要从白宫听到什么才能让谈判重回正轨时，沙茨周三告诉哥伦比亚广播公司新闻，白宫不理解的是“我们最初提出的原则，我们只需要实施它们”。他认为这对政府也有利。
“他们明白，自己把最大的政治优势之一变成了最大的政治劣势之一，”沙茨说，“所以他们认为让这个‘流氓机构’得到控制是对我们的恩赐，这是对局势的误解。”

Senate to vote again on funding DHS as tempers flare over impasse
March 12, 2026 / 7:40 AM EDT / CBS News
Washington — The Senate will vote again Thursday on a measure to fund the Department of Homeland Security as an impasse over how to reform immigration enforcement agencies has grown ugly, nearly a month into a partial shutdown.
Since the fatal shootings of Alex Pretti and Renee Good by federal agents in Minnesota in January, Democrats have blocked all funding for DHS, holding out for reforms to Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection. Democrats and Republicans alike say they are nowhere near an agreement.
“We are in a negotiation, however, we are not close,” Democratic Sen. Brian Schatz of Hawaii said Wednesday.
The two sides have been trading blame in recent days as the shutdown’s strains have begun to be felt, with long security lines stretching through airports. TSA agents are set to miss their first full paycheck this week. Absences have more than doubled, and hundreds of TSA workers have quit.
“[Democrats] refused to sit down with us this week. Refused,” GOP Sen. Katie Britt of Alabama told reporters Tuesday. “That’s actually absurd.”
Republicans say Democrats aren’t coming to the negotiating table, claiming they refused a recent request to sit down with the White House.
But Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer told CBS News “that’s a lot of bull.” He said Democrats are “constantly in communication with the White House” and are “sending things back and forth.”
“It’s a substantive problem,” Schumer said. “The White House will not budge on things that Americans want — like warrants, like de-masking — plain and simple.”
Democrats have sought to restrict immigration agents from wearing masks and require them to display an ID and use body cameras. They have also demanded agents be banned from entering private property without judicial warrants, among other policy changes.
Senators brought the debate to the Senate floor on Wednesday. Democrats tried to approve a measure by unanimous consent to fund the other agencies that DHS oversees, including TSA, FEMA and the Coast Guard. Republicans blocked it, and countered with a measure to extend funding for all of DHS on a temporary basis to allow additional time to negotiate. Democrats blocked that.

“We are trying to close a deal that would enable us to fund all the agencies that the Democrats say they want funded with reforms — with reforms to ICE,” an animated Senate Majority Leader John Thune said on the Senate floor amid the back and forth.
During the debate, Republicans noted that the latest proposal came from the White House more than 10 days ago, while railing against Democrats for their posture in the negotiations. Thune said that he’d seen the offer sheet from the White House, claiming that it goes “a lot farther” than even Democrats may have thought possible.
“This is a one-sided negotiation in which the White House has put forward a proposal, Senate Republicans have said repeatedly, ‘We are prepared to sit down and talk with Senate Democrats,’ and Senate Democrats … have said, ‘Sorry, we’re not ready to talk,’” Thune said.
Sen. Patty Murray of Washington, the top Democratic appropriator in the Senate, responded to the majority leader, saying that “having a few members talk is not going to resolve a situation where we need an understanding — and a clear understanding — from the White House.”
“I am willing to talk to people, but I’m not willing to sit in a room, have coffee, give away a few things, and have Stephen Miller override whatever we all agreed to,” Murray said.
Regarding the White House offers, Murray said there are “continual conversations at that level.” But she said it’s up to the White House to make it “very clear” that someone is willing to negotiate who “understands what has happened in cities across our country, and in particular in Minneapolis, where two people were murdered.”
“If we can hear those words, then I think we’re on the way to coming to an understanding,” she said.
Thursday’s vote comes after the Senate failed for a third time last week to advance the measure to fund DHS through September.
Asked what Democrats need to hear from the White House to get the negotiations on track, Schatz told CBS News on Wednesday that what the White House doesn’t understand is “the principles that we put forth at the outset, we just need to enact them.” He argued that doing so is also in the administration’s interest.
“They understand that they took one of their biggest political advantages and turned it into one of their biggest political disadvantages,” Schatz said. “So this idea that it’s a gift to us for them to get this rogue agency under control is a misunderstanding of the situation.”
