Three top U.S. immigration officials are testifying before the Senate Committee on Homeland Security.
The hearing is scheduled to begin at 9 a.m.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement acting Director Todd Lyons, Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Rodney Scott, and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services Director Joseph Edlow will face questions from senators as bickering over Department of Homeland Security funding threatens a government shutdown.
Democrats are likely to hammer the officials on the recent shooting deaths of Renee Good and Alex Pretti at the hands of federal agents during immigration enforcement operations in Minneapolis.
