GOP Lawmaker Calls for John Thune to Be Replaced as Senate Leader
Representative John Rose has called for Senate Majority Leader John Thune to be replaced after the Senate passed a funding bill that left out money for ICE and CBP. The move has sparked criticism from some Republicans, who feel that Thune has capitulated to Democrats on immigration enforcement.
A funding bill passed by the Senate has sparked controversy among Republicans. The bill, which would fund most of the Department of Homeland Security through September 30, excludes money for ICE and CBP. Representative John Rose has called for Senate Majority Leader John Thune to be replaced, citing the bill as a reason. Other Republicans, including Representative Tim Burchett, have also criticized the Senate's handling of the bill. The House has passed its own competing bill, but it is unlikely to pass in the Senate. The government shutdown continues, with no end in sight.
