Congress has averted a partial shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security just hours before the agency was set to lose its funding. On Friday, lawmakers approved a stopgap measure keeping the DHS open for another week. House Democrats helped approve the bill hours after far-right Republicans revolted against a three-week funding measure brought by House Speaker John Boehner. Republicans have sought to tie the DHS money to reversing President Obama’s executive actions on immigration. Boehner has reportedly promised Democrats that a “clean” long-term funding bill without the immigration provisions will reach the House floor this week.
