Trump’s deportation agenda is about to get a $70B infusion from Congress

With virtually no strings attached, Congress is on the verge of providing a massive infusion of cash to the Homeland Security Department. The $70 billion package that was approved overnight by the Senate and now goes to the House will be able to power President Donald Trump’s mass deportation agenda for the remainder of his term. A pro-immigration advocate says it's an “ATM for ICE.” But for those aligned with Trump’s campaign promise for the largest mass deportation operation in U.S. history, it all but guarantees an uninterrupted flow of money to carry out the administration’s immigration enforcement operations.
