It depends on what the Senate puts together if it is substantially different from what the House put together and how the House handles the changes. We have seen the GOP do "the save" for their zombie leader time and time again, but if Democrats can extract some additional concessions, that will make the effort worth it.

ICE/CBP were given tens of billions of frivolous and nebulous funding from the Barbaric Butcher Bill and IMHO, that should be ALL they get (however they reprogram it for mundane appropriations like "salaries/leases" etc). There should be NO ADDITIONAL FUNDING for them when they are wasting funds on "tricked out" 100K each SUVs and bullshit recruiting ads.
