DHS Funding Standoff Causes Airport Delays

Senators from both parties express frustration over the ongoing DHS funding standoff, causing severe airport security line delays. Democrats demand changes to ICE and CBP, while Republicans insist on full enforcement abilities. After a lengthy Senate debate, each side blocks the others short-term funding proposals. Lawmakers admit deep divide, with some Democrats calling recent border incidents a turning point. Republicans stress the need for full resources to uphold immigration laws. Earlier bipartisan talks fell apart after a shooting in Minneapolis. Over two hundred sixty thousand DHS workers remain unpaid, straining airport travel during spring break. Despite the deadlock, senators are talking more, hinting at possible progress ahead.
