WASHINGTON—Congress on Feb. 5 will continue to work on a bill to fund the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) as members in both chambers remain at odds on the path forward.

Democrats in the Senate are demanding reforms to DHS and its subsidiary Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Republicans in the House are demanding the passage of a law to require voter ID nationwide, which Senate Democrats have described as a nonstarter.
