The bill would establish a State Border Security Reinforcement Fund in the Department of Homeland Security and a State Criminal Alien Prosecution and Detention Fund in the Department of Justice, providing grants to eligible states, state agencies, and local governments for specified border-security, enforcement, prosecution, detention, and transportation activities. It would appropriate $11 billion to the Homeland Security fund and $3.5 billion to the Justice Department fund for fiscal year 2025, with both amounts available until September 30, 2034. Both funds would terminate on January 20, 2029, with unobligated balances returned to the Treasury for deficit reduction.
