@SoccerGrlProbs @USWNT our Plattsburgh FC u15 girls team is challenging you to Griddy Juggle. Here is our first attempt in between games. #TeamHavingFun #PFCStorm #GirlsRunTheWorld

@jayobtv 5,600 CBP civilian employees will continue to NOT BE PAID! We are all ok with their suffering. This is wrong! Pay all your workers. These families are caught in this political game and their suffering is real. NOT sure why NO seems to care about them!

NEW — While you were sleeping, at 2am, the Senate finally funded most of Homeland Security. After a 42 day standoff and negotiations that fell apart and came together again repeatedly Funding package includes everything in DHS besides ICE and part of CBP. Agencies that WILL be funded include TSA, FEMA, Coast Guard, and CISA Now it goes to the House.

@JillWineBanks They started the shutdown and they are continuing to hurt 5,600 CBP civilian employees. Tell me why these folks who have nothing to do with ICE should continue to suffer. Maybe if they don’t do the paperwork at Ports, or import commerce people will see them?

The Democrats stayed firm and won. Senate passed bill to fund TSA and DHS without $ for ICE or CBP! Congratulations. thehill.com/homenews/senat…

@JakeSherman Not to mention 5,600 American workers who have civilian jobs with CBP who haven’t been paid will continue to suffer with the CBP exclusion. But hey who cares about those families. NO one should be asked to work without pay.

🚨THE HOUSE is going to have big problems moving the DHS funding bill today. In the rules for the 119th Congress, House Republicans handcuffed themselves. The majority can not move bills under suspension of the rules on Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. Hardline conservatives hate moving bills under suspension because it bypasses the rule vote -- where they have the most leverage. Suspensions short-circuit that process but they need 2/3 majority. So @SpeakerJohnson can go to the Rules Committee, where he can try to get a rule -- no sure thing. If he does get one, he can try to pass a rule on the floor -- no sure thing there either with his margins. Rules are party-line votes. Or he can wait until Monday, where he can pass this on suspension. Either way, suspension is going to be controversial. Maybe Trump can convince HFC types to pass a rule. But I don't know that that will work. No SAVE America Act in this. And rules are hard in the best of times.

@realDonaldTrump please Mr. President find a way to fund the 5,600 CBP employees who have not been getting paid during this shutdown and won’t since they excluded CBP from funding. These families are suffering and this is wrong! No American should be working w/o pay. Thank you

@ZannSuz @nytimes Except for 5,600 people who work for CBP and haven’t been getting paid and will continue to suffer!

@nytimes ICE & the Border Patrol were fully funded for the year by the BBB. Democrats knew this when they decided to hold the paychecks of federal workers hostage to protect illegal aliens.

Breaking News: The Senate voted to fund the Homeland Security Department, except for ICE and the Border Patrol, a key step toward ending a partial shutdown. nyti.ms/41vMRUt

@nytimes 5,600 federal employees will still be without paychecks. CBP civilian employees will continue to suffer. This is not OK. NO ONE should work without pay.

@ChadPergram 5,600 CBP civilian workers including clerks, admin, instructors and more will not be paid. They are the forgotten ones. They will continue to suffer. This is so wrong, no one should work without pay.

Thune: are here because thanks to Democrats determined refusal to reach an agreement. There will be no homeland security funding bill this year. Instead, just a few minutes ago, Republicans funded the Department of Homeland Security piecemeal. It's not the way to fund the department, Mr. President, but we are out of time for the critical responsibilities and 10s of 1000s of workers currently going without pay. And since Democrats have made fiscal year 2026 the year they choose to repudiate one of their most basic responsibilities as members of Congress, to fund the government, this is what we have been reduced to. 84 days, Mr. President, 84 days nearly half of this fiscal year so far, the government has been shut down in whole or in part, by Senate Democrats.

@trekkinglens @JakeSherman I know this is so wrong!! No one should be working without pay.

@JakeSherman Admin and support employees in CBP/ICE will remain UNPAID and not covered by OBBB. We are the losers in this

THE HOUSE is up today to pass this funding bill. This isn’t hard. It’s the DHS funding bill they’ve passed a number of times without ICE and Border patrol, which has funding from OBBB. Dems got nothing here on policy. But they did get a DHS bill without ice and CBP. This is a prime candidate for suspension vote.

@JakeSherman What about the 5,600 CBP employees who have been going without pay? They just continue to suffer and get lost in all this? This is wrong, NO one should be working without Pay!

@DCHealthWatch @PattyMurray Clearly you do not have a clue. 5,600 civilians employees work for CBP and were not getting paid during this shutdown. I am sure going to HR and saying please pay us will work. You are a genius thank you!

@hewsona24 @PattyMurray ICE and CBP are sitting on about 8 years of funding each; $75 billion and $60 billion respectively. These "two family members" might want to talk to HR.

BREAKING: Republicans have relented to Democratic demands to fund the rest of DHS besides ICE & Border Patrol. No more holding TSA hostage. No blank check for ICE & Border Patrol. We need real reforms & accountability. I'll keep fighting for exactly that. murray.senate.gov/senator-murray…

@bresreports 5,600 civilians CBP employees will continue to suffer without pay checks. No one cares about them

While you were sleeping - senators approved a DHS funding bill without ICE & CBP, the left town until April 13. Action now shifts to the House

@ChadPergram 5,600 civilians CBP employees who have nothing been paid. What happens to them? They continue to suffer?

Ball now in the House’s court to end DHS shutdown after Senate passes funding bill, sans ICE and Border Patrol money

@berniemoreno what about the 5,600 civilian CBP employees who have nothing been paid during this shutdown? Do they continue to suffer?

@jamiedupree What about the 5,600 civilian CBP employees? They are not getting paid, so they get to still suffer and forgotten about. No one should work without pay.

The shutdown fight at the Department of Homeland Security finally seems to be over. The Senate at 2 am approved funding for most of DHS - except for ICE and the Border Patrol. Final House approval is still needed. Much more in today's 'Regular Order' jamiedupree.substack.com/p/after-41-day…

@AndyKimNJ What about civilian CBP employees those 5,600 people continue to suffer?

Just leaving the Capitol now at 3am as I wanted to be on the Senate floor through final passage of the vote to end the shutdown. As we promised, there was no funding for ICE without the reforms Americans demand. TSA at our airports funded; zero for ICE.

@ewarren Can you tell me what happens to the 5,600 civilian employees who work for CBP who have nothing been getting paid? They get to continue to suffer and be forgotten about?

@CoryBooker what about the 5,600 civilian CBP employees? They just get to continue to suffer? How is this ok? Tell those families they do not matter. They have nothing to do with ice or your agenda.

@ThePatriotOasis We will still have civilian CBP people not getting paid! 5,600 people still suffering while they go on vacation. This is so wrong.

🔥🚨 JUST IN: Members of Congress are getting ready to take TAXPAYER FUNDED trips after voting “NO” to funding DHS. Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D) is scheduled to depart on a congressional delegation trip to Taiwan and Japan. Meanwhile, Sen. Jack Reed (D), the ranking Democrat on the same committee, plans to travel to Ukraine. Having to stay back and working to pay hard working Americans isn’t the priority…

@Buzzard1996 @LisaDNews Not everyone with CBP was getting paid. 5,600 civilian workers were not and will continue to not being paid.

@LisaDNews Republicans won! Ice and boarder security are already funded through 2029 “big beautiful bill” and now can fund ICE even more through reconciliation - without democrat involvement It’s a great win for TRUMP!!!! Don’t let Dems tell you otherwise

BREAKING. The Senate just passed funding for most of DHS for the rest of the fiscal year. The bill funds all but ICE and *Border Patrol* This was by unanimous voice vote. It now goes to the House, which is still in town and can vote later today. The bill contains no reforms. It comes after POTUS pledged to fund TSA, removing a key pressure point.

@LisaDNews So the Civilian employees of CBP continue to suffer and have to go w/o pay still. They are innocent victims in this game and they will be forgotten if we don’t speak up. This is so wrong. Their families do not deserve this..
