What happened

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin testified in a House hearing on deportations and department funding, in proceedings carried live and presented as a confrontation between the Secretary and Democratic members, according to the broadcast. Members questioned the scale and accountability of department funding, with one member stating, as he stated it, that a reconciliation measure had added $260 billion to the department — more than four times what Congress usually allocates in one fiscal year, not including the disaster relief fund — without safeguards considered by the subcommittee.

The hearing ranged across the administration’s deportation operations and the constitutional role of Congress in appropriations, with members pressing the Secretary on how the funds would be used and overseen, according to the hearing record.

Why it matters

The hearing is a congressional oversight checkpoint on the administration’s immigration enforcement and its funding, and the disputed $260 billion figure, as stated by members, is preserved here with its attribution for the chronicle’s border record.

Scoreboard watch

Flagged for the scoreboard editor: the $260 billion DHS funding figure and the claim it lacked subcommittee safeguards, each as stated by members in the hearing, for checking against the enacted reconciliation text.
