Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer<\/a>, D-N.Y., remained silent earlier this week when asked how long Democrats intended to hold out on funding the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) amid a recent string of suspected terror attacks.<\/p>\n

Fox News Digital approached Schumer with a pair of questions in the basement of the Senate.<\/p>\n

“Is it time to fund the DHS<\/a> after four domestic suspected terror attacks have occurred?” a Fox News Digital reporter asked.<\/p>\n

“If the Republicans<\/a> don\u2019t agree to the ICE reforms that you guys want, all of them, what\u2019s the next step? How long are you willing to leave DHS unfunded?”<\/p>\n

Schumer deflected the questions.<\/p>\n

“Ask the Republicans,” Schumer answered.<\/p>\n

Funding for DHS originally lapsed on Feb. 14 when Democrats refused to advance spending legislation for DHS that didn\u2019t also include a set of demands to reform ICE<\/a>. Among other changes, Democrats have conditioned their support on a ban on masks for ICE agents, stiffer warrant requirement for apprehending suspects in public and a ban on roaming patrols.<\/p>\n

Republicans have rebuffed the demands, arguing they would handcuff President Donald Trump’s<\/a> immigration enforcement goals.<\/p>\n

Republicans need at least seven Democrats to reach the 60-vote threshold<\/a> to break a filibuster in the Senate, where they hold just 53 seats.<\/p>\n

The standoff has overlapped with a series of domestic attacks<\/a>, raising alarm among Republicans that DHS\u2019s closure may be reducing the country\u2019s preparedness to counter similar threats.<\/p>\n

A vehicle ramming at a synagogue in Michigan,<\/a> a university shooting in Virginia, the detonations of explosives in New York and another shooting in Texas have left Republicans like Sen. John Barrasso, R-Wyo., calling for Democrats to abandon their demands.<\/p>\n

“Democrats have shut down the very department charged with defending our nation from terrorism while our nation is on high alert,” Barrasso said in a post to X.<\/a><\/p>\n

In addition to ICE, DHS also manages the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), the Secret Service and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA).<\/p>\n

Barrasso, the Senate GOP Whip,<\/a> was echoed by Rep. Andrew Garbarino, R-N.Y., the chairman of the House Committee on Homeland Security.<\/p>\n

He stressed the urgency to fund the department amid the U.S. conflict with<\/a> Iran.<\/a><\/p>\n

“I urge my Democrat colleagues to make the right decision and stop playing dangerous games with DHS funding. As threats from Iran escalate, America must be fully prepared to respond and mitigate threats to the homeland,” Garbarino wrote.<\/a><\/p>\n

The funding lapse<\/a> hit<\/a> the one-month mark on Saturday.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
