The Senate Appropriations Committee is punting its Homeland Security spending bill markup that had been originally slotted for Thursday.
Appropriators were set to consider the draft DHS measure alongside the four other remaining fiscal 2025 bills: Defense, Energy-Water, Financial Services and Labor-HHS-Education.
But Senate Appropriations Chair Patty Murray, D-Wash., decided to pull the Homeland Security bill as lawmakers needed more time to sort through the thorny issues that typically plague the Homeland Security bill, a source familiar with the decision said.
