The House engrossed H.R. 8029 on March 26, 2026; the bill is the Pay Our Homeland Defenders Act, a DHS appropriations measure.

Huizenga's border-law-enforcement pay proposal advanced in the House, showing concrete effort to secure manpower support during shutdowns even though it was not yet final law.

Huizenga said the bill would ensure DHS law enforcement personnel defending the borders are paid during a shutdown and cover Border Patrol and CBP officers.

This is the clearest direct statement tying Huizenga to a manpower-and-pay border-security commitment, though it predates the 30-day lookback window.

Assessments

delivered same_term

The promise was to ensure border security resources and manpower are provided. During Huizenga's current federal House term, an enacted DHS appropriations law funded U.S. Customs and Border Protection border security operations, procurement, and personnel-related support. That satisfies the broad resource-and-manpower outcome. Huizenga also materially pursued related manpower/pay legislation for DHS border personnel, but the enacted appropriations evidence is enough to count the promise as delivered in the same term rather than merely attempted.
