Seven House Democrats voted in favor of a $64.4 billion bill to advance a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) spending measure that includes about $10 billion for ICE. The votes came during a markup of the DHS appropriations bill, with Representative Thomas Massie of Kentucky casting the lone Republican vote against the funding, which passed 220-207 and will fund ICE and FEMA through September 30.
The seven Democrats who voted alongside the majority of Republicans to push forward the bill are Representatives
- Tom Suozzi (New York),
- Henry Cuellar (Texas),
- Don Davis (North Carolina),
- Laura Gillen (New York),
- Jared Golden (Maine),
- Vicente Gonzalez (Texas),
- Marie Glusenkamp Perez (Washington).
