No. ICE was already plenty funded from last summer’s bill, which is why they’re still on the streets and in the airports. The Democrats were (supposedly) fighting for restrictions on ICE: no masks, warrants required, limits on use of force, etc. Once again, they got absolutely none of the things that they were supposedly fighting for.
The Republicans, however, get to claim they’ve “ended” the shutdown, and have also gotten pretty much everything they wanted.

Restrictions only work if they’re enforced, too, so giving resources in exchange for rules, without any changes to enforcement, is a losing strategy.
Losing strategy is the dems favorite thing to do though 😭
