57-day DHS partial shutdown, longest single-department funding lapse in US history, ends

The 57-day Department of Homeland Security partial shutdown ended when the House passed the bipartisan Senate DHS funding bill, funding TSA, FEMA, the Coast Guard, CISA, and the Secret Service through September 2026. ICE and CBP were excluded from the bill and will receive party-line reconciliation funding separately. More than 240,000 DHS workers had been furloughed or forced to work without pay since February 19, and more than 450 TSA officers had resigned during the lapse.
