Overview
- ICE is running $1 billion over its fiscal year budget with three months remaining.
- The administration's order for 3,000 daily immigrant arrests has strained agent resources and detention operations.
- DHS has reallocated roughly $500 million internally but says it needs at least $2 billion more by September to sustain immigration enforcement.
- Detention facilities housing about 41,000 beds are fully occupied, prompting DHS to seek additional space domestically and abroad.
- The White House is backing a $75 billion funding plan over five years and may declare a national emergency to tap other federal accounts if Congress stalls.
