US House to vote on DHS funding as travel chaos deepens

The US House of Representatives has been called back to the Capitol to vote on a bill to fund the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) as airport travel delays sweep the country.

The House bill is unlikely to be signed into law, as Democrats have pushed to halt funding to immigration agencies covered under DHS without reforms. The House is planning to vote on the measure late on Friday. If approved, it would then h...
