Terminate the department's grant programs
What the document says“DHS should not be in the business of handing out federal tax dollars: These grants should be terminated.”
The chapter argues from federalism that states better understand their own needs and should bear the costs of their own programs, and says the department's grants to states and localities should be ended. It notes that doing so requires Congress, which it says repeatedly votes to fund the grants for political reasons.
What the document actually says“DHS should not be in the business of handing out federal tax dollars: These grants should be terminated.”
This department should not hand out money. These grants should end.
The department gives money to states and towns. It pays for things like police training. The book says that should stop. It says states should pay for their own needs.
Read against the documents indexed here on August 26, 2026, and nothing was found that answers this. Nothing among the candidates ends the department's grant programs. Public Law 119-21 moves money the other way, appropriating $10,000,000,000 to reimburse costs of activities supporting the border mission and $2,055,000,000 for immigration enforcement work, and it creates a reimbursement fund that pays states and local governments, though that fund sits in the Department of Justice rather than in Homeland Security. The Title VI rescission rules narrow civil rights conditions attached to federally assisted programs; they leave the grants themselves in place. That is a record of a search, not a finding that nothing has happened: an act this site does not hold, or one that answers the proposal in words unlike its own, would not be caught by it.
