AP reported the Senate adopted a 50-48 budget resolution to fund ICE and Border Patrol; Kennedy briefly held up the vote series, then withdrew his objection and allowed the vote to proceed. The article names only Sens. Murkowski and Paul among the Republican no votes, which implies Kennedy voted yes.

Kennedy appears to have voted for the Senate measure that funded ICE and Border Patrol, satisfying the commitment in the same Congress and term.
