The "Homeland Heroes Pay Act" establishes continuing appropriations for the salaries and expenses of specific U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) employees during any lapse in discretionary appropriations. These funds ensure critical border security and immigration enforcement operations continue without interruption, covering CBP agents and officers performing mission-critical functions at U.S. borders, including preventing terrorists and illicit contraband. They also support ICE officers and agents conducting immigration enforcement, such as detaining and removing aliens, and investigating criminal operations like illegal trade and human trafficking. This measure aims to maintain essential government functions related to national security and public safety during potential funding gaps, with appropriations remaining available until a subsequent regular or continuing appropriation for the same purpose is enacted into law.
