US Congress approves $70 billion to fund Trump immigration enforcement

The US House of Representatives passed a $70 billion funding package for immigration enforcement measures tied to President Donald Trump's border‑security agenda. The bill was approved by a narrow margin of 214‑212 votes.

The money is earmarked for the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP), supporting initiatives such as additional border personnel, continued wall construction, and faster deportation processes. The allocation reinforces Trump’s stated goal of mass deportations and stricter border control throughout the remainder of his term.
