The Senate has voted to fund much of the Department of Homeland Security.
After a lapse of 42 days, the deal does not include any money for ICE.
But it also does not include any reform to immigration enforcement tactics that Democrats had demanded.
NPR's Sam Greenglass reports.
The DHS funding lapse has forced tens of thousands of employees to work without pay or quit and resulted in long
waits at some airports amid peak spring break travel.
If the House signs off on the deal today, money will flow again to FEMA, TSA, the Coast Guard and cybersecurity.
The deal came after a week of erratic negotiations and President Trump moving to unilaterally pay TSA.
Agents be in executive order.
Democrats say they stood firm on no new funding for ICE and Border Patrol and will keep
pressing for reforms like requiring judicial warrants for immigration officers to enter homes.
But Republicans are now signaling the time to negotiate has passed.
