With today’s passage of the Budget Resolution, we can begin the process of funding those who work every day to secure our homeland. ... House Republicans are committed to getting this done.
Fund ICE and CBP through the FY26 budget and reconciliation process.
Occurrences
Evidence
Hern said he voted for the FY26 budget resolution because it lays the budget framework for the reconciliation process to fund ICE and CBP.
The Senate Budget Committee’s ranking-member newsroom reported that the parliamentarian advised Byrd Rule violations in Republicans’ ICE and Border Patrol reconciliation bill, indicating the funding package was still under procedural challenge.
Assessments
Hern did take a direct same-term step toward the promise by voting for the FY2026 budget resolution that created reconciliation instructions intended to fund ICE and CBP. But the promised outcome was to fund ICE and CBP through the FY26 budget and reconciliation process, and the record available as of May 22, 2026 shows the reconciliation funding package was still unresolved and facing Byrd Rule/procedural obstacles, with reported funding still in limbo. A budget framework vote is meaningful progress but not final enacted funding, so this is partial rather than delivered.
