Fox News: Massachusetts bill would force ICE agents to unmask
A Massachusetts bill introduced by Democratic Rep. James Hawkins seeks to require federal immigration enforcement officers, including ICE agents, to unmask while performing their duties. The proposal aims to enhance transparency by mandating officers display their names or badge numbers, with violations punishable as misdemeanors.
ICE officials, including acting director Todd Lyons, defend the need for masks due to safety concerns, citing threats against agents and their families. The bill is part of a broader Democratic effort to increase oversight of immigration enforcement practices, with similar legislation introduced at the federal level.
The Federalist: Trump Has No Reason To Compromise With Dems On Immigration
Rumors suggest the Trump administration may consider comprehensive immigration reform, potentially including amnesty for illegal aliens. However, the complex legislative landscape and divergent party positions make significant bipartisan support unlikely, risking backlash from Trump's base.

The Federalist: What's Next In The Battle To Get Federal Spending Under Control
The recently passed budget reconciliation legislation has initiated reforms to control federal spending, but with the national debt at $36 trillion, further action is essential. The focus now shifts to discretionary spending and the upcoming appropriations bills that fund various government functions.
The Senate is set to consider a rescissions package for spending cuts, exempt from filibuster rules, allowing Republicans to pass it without Democratic support. However, the timeline is tight, and failure to act by July 18 could hinder future spending cuts. Congress must also address discretionary appropriations by September 30, facing potential conflict with Democrats.
