Contributing sentiments towards policy:

50% : Democrats have pledged to oppose the package unless a funding measure for the Department of Homeland Security, which oversees Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection, is stripped out.
46% : And although the final funding package had been expected to sail through the Senate this week, the deadly shooting of Alex Pretti by Border Patrol agents in Minneapolis over the weekend prompted Democrats to seek changes to how immigration agencies operate.
33% : "Until ICE is properly reined in and overhauled legislatively, the DHS funding bill doesn't have the votes to pass the Senate," Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said Wednesday.
