Michael Faulkender, former Deputy Treasury Secretary, discusses the Republican strategy to fund the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), specifically Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). He argues that reconciliation should have been the approach from the start, as it provides a way to secure necessary funding for these agencies without requiring Democratic support, especially since previous deals reduced their funding.
