Under the plan, the Senate would carve out legislation funding the Department of Homeland Security from a six-bill package of spending measures required to fund the military, health programs and other federal agencies through the rest of the fiscal year, the Times said.
The report comes after Senate Democrats called for new restrictions on immigration agents earlier in the day, setting up a confrontation with the Trump administration.
Large swaths of the US government could shut down this weekend if Republicans and Democrats do not reach a deal on immigration.
