US EditionFunding to Maryland’s National Fire Academy will be restored, Trump administration official says
- In early 2025, DHS Secretary Kristi Noem testified before a Senate Appropriations subcommittee to discuss issues related to immigration enforcement and the department’s budget.
- Concerns arose from Republicans and Democrats about delayed processing of Temporary Protected Status renewals, scrutiny on Canadian students with visas, and the wrongful deportation of a Maryland man to El Salvador.
- Noem faced criticism for immigration policies affecting protected immigrants, alleged mismanagement of over $100 billion in DHS funds, and disputes over the case of deported El Salvadoran Kilmar Abrego Garcia.
- Senators including Patty Murray called DHS spending an "illegal freeze," while Noem blamed previous administrations and refused detailed answers on funding reallocations or Abrego Garcia's return.
- The hearing underscored risks that DHS may exhaust its $65 billion funding by July 2025, potentially triggering the Antideficiency Act and complicating ongoing oversight of immigration enforcement and budget use.
