Omar bill would strip $140bn from ICE, CBP, redirect to local recovery

Rep. Ilhan Omar will introduce the Make ICE Pay Act, which would block nearly $140bn in funding for ICE and CBP and redirect it to communities affected by Trump's immigration crackdown. The bill is a legislative counter to administration enforcement policy, but faces near-certain opposition in a Republican-controlled Congress. Its significance lies in signaling Democratic opposition strategy ahead of midterms, not in near-term passage.
