The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has announced that it will maintain tariff collection and continue immigration enforcement operations, even if the government shuts down. This announcement comes as federal agencies prepare for potential disruptions due to funding expiration on September 30, unless Congress intervenes.

As the deadline approaches, various federal departments are revising their operational strategies to ensure critical functions remain intact during a possible shutdown.
