Thank you for taking the time to contact me. As your senator, it is important that I hear from you. I appreciate hearing your concerns regarding legislation that would fund the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and its components for Fiscal Year 2026. As you may know, the House of Representatives voted to pass H.R.7147 on January 22, 2026, to finish funding the government for the rest of the year. Ultimately, on January 30, 2026, the Senate voted in favor of a two-week continuing resolution for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to continue negotiations while funding the rest of the government. The House of Representatives voted to pass the two-week continuing resolution on February 3, 2026, and President Trump signed the bill on the same day. I voted in favor of that measure. Aside from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), other DHS components require appropriations, including the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), the Coast Guard, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), the United States Secret Service, and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). In short, DHS is responsible not just for border security, but also emergency assistance, and ensuring our national security. As the legislative process and these bipartisan negotiations continue, I will be sure to keep your thoughts in mind. I also understand there are concerns regarding U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE) presence in Minneapolis, Minnesota. I understand that there are ongoing investigations concerning the recent shootings in Minneapolis. We ought to let these investigations play out before making any judgments. Let me be clear, one death is too many and I will be watching the investigations closely. Additionally, I was encouraged to hear that President Trump and Governor Walz spoke by phone as well as Mayor Frey. I hope Minnesota and federal law enforcement can reach an understanding so our federal immigration laws can be enforced.
