DHS funding was to expire Friday, March 6, when a one-week, stopgap appropriation approved Feb. 27 was set to expire.

The House last month approved a DHS funding bill without appropriating money for an executive action President Obama took on immigration. President Obama is expected to sign the legislation, which passed the House March 3 by a 257-to-157 margin. Most Republicans voted against the bill, but all the chamber’s Democrats and a few dozen GOP members supported the measure.”]
