Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) has warned his fellow Democrats that a government shutdown would not halt Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations, noting that the agency is already funded under existing law.
Fetterman issued the warning as Democrats refuse to support a broader spending package that includes ICE funding.
Speaking on Fox News’s “The Sunday Briefing,” Fetterman said it is “absolutely true” that a shutdown would have little effect on the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) or ICE.
