Senate adjourns for recess as DHS funding fight drags on

91±¬ÁÏ chief congressional correspondent Chad Pergram joins ‘America’s Newsroom’ with the latest on the Senate adjourning for recess amid the DHS funding standoff.

The U.S. Senate holds a pro forma session, failing to reach a unanimous consent agreement on Department of Homeland Security (DHS) funding. This extends the government shutdown for the DHS, impacting many federal employees, until at least April 2, 2026. The delay intensifies the political standoff on Capitol Hill, with Democrats blocking Republican-backed legislation.
