Republicans in the 119th Congress advanced a fiscal year 2026 budget resolution in late April that included reconciliation instructions directing the House and Senate Judiciary and Homeland Security committees to produce legislation increasing deficits by up to $70 billion, primarily to fund immigration enforcement through Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection. The Senate completed its version, the Secure America Act, on June 5 after a vote-a-rama and passed it 52-47 along largely party lines. House committees completed markups in May, and the full chamber took up the measure in early June, where narrow majorities have produced close floor votes on similar packages. Passage hinges on unified Republican support in the House given the slim GOP edge, with any internal divisions over spending levels or policy riders potentially delaying or altering the outcome before scheduled procedural deadlines or the August recess.
