WASHINGTON — House Republicans won’t vote on a Senate-approved deal to fund the Department of Homeland Security, meaning the weekslong partial shutdown of the agency will drag on.

Instead, they will vote on a DHS funding bill of their own, Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) told reporters Friday.

“The Senate Democrats have foisted upon this appropriations process their radical crazy agenda,” Johnson claimed.

The speaker said he spoke to President Donald Trump about punting on the Senate-passed bill and has his support.
