House conservatives are criticizing the Senate GOP's and White House's proposed deal to end a six-week DHS shutdown over the SAVE Act, sparking tensions between the two branches of Congress amid efforts to break the stalemate and reopen government agencies. The proposal has sparked concerns among conservative lawmakers who oppose the bill due to what they see as excessive spending on border security measures. House conservatives are warning that their support for ending the shutdown is conditional on changes being made to the agreement, threatening to upend a potential compromise.
