U.S. Department of Homeland Security, also known as DHS, is a state-owned entity headquartered in the US. Founded in 2002, it employs approximately 38,480 individuals. Functioning as a government administration body, its core mission revolves around the comprehensive administration of governmental functions related to homeland security.
On March 22, 2026, President Donald Trump ordered the deployment of immigration agents to U.S. airports starting Monday to alleviate soaring congestion at security screenings, a move announced in a Sunday morning social media post amid a weeks-long budget standoff over his mass deportation drive. This follows Senator Ted Cruz's proposal earlier on March 22 to separate funding for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) from the broader Department of Homeland Security (DHS) funding bill, aiming to address the growing chaos at airports. Previously, on March 22, former Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson, who served under President Obama, urged lawmakers to fund DHS and its employees, stating on the "Cats Roundtable" radio show that the department had been in a shutdown for over a month and stressing the need to end these funding disputes.
