WASHINGTON, DC - MAY 21: Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) gestures while speaking to reporters as he walks into his office at the U.S. Capitol Building on May 21, 2026 in Washington, DC. Senate Republicans are postponing a planned budget reconciliation package vote to fund U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE) and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) after concerns over a Justice Department nearly $1.8 billion compensation fund for allies of U.S. President Donald Trump who allege they were unfairly targeted by the federal government under the previous administration.
