President Donald Trump signed a bill Thursday afternoon that formally ends the partial government shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security.

The legislation funds the Coast Guard, TSA, Secret Service, FEMA, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), and other agencies, but does not include funding for Immigration and Customs Enforcement or the Border Patrol.

Republicans are planning a reconciliation package to separately approve funding for ICE and Border Patrol for the remainder of Trump's term. 

The signing, which comes after the House passed the legislation earlier Thursday, officially ends the partial government shutdown after 76 days by providing funding for the agencies through the rest of the fiscal year.
