Just a day after Congress cleared a Homeland Security Department funding extension, the top Democrats in the House and Senate have outlined their demands for negotiations on full-year funding ahead of a Feb. 13 deadline.
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer, both New York Democrats, delivered to GOP leadership their list of demands for overhauling Immigration and Customs Enforcement late Wednesday.
Among the requirements are two that GOP leaders have already said they would oppose: that DHS agents stop wearing masks, and only enter private property for enforcement activities with judicial warrants.
