Failed Border Bill Pushed by Democrat and Republican Senate Leaders

A border bill pushed by Democrat and Republican Senate leaders failed in a floor vote, only receiving 43 votes. The bill aimed to accelerate the inflow of economic migrants via asylum and parole loopholes. Democrats and independents joined GOP no-votes, with Senators like Bernie Sanders and Kyrsten Sinema voting against. Despite the failure, Democrats are likely pleased with the bill as it spreads blame for Biden's immigration policies.

Senate Vote on Border Bill and Immigration Policy

Democrats are re-staging a Senate vote on their failed February border bill, blaming Republicans for mass illegal migration.

Senate Republicans' Border Bill

Senate Republicans' efforts to stop non-citizens, including illegal immigrants, from being counted on the census for congressional district and Electoral College apportionment were shot down by Democrats.

Bipartisan Border Bill

President Joe Biden and Senate Democrats claim that the bipartisan border bill is the toughest and most efficient ever seen, but critics argue that the bill minimizes border barriers, mandates catch-and-release for migrants, and weakens curbs on migration. The bill also includes provisions for asylum, parole, funding, and drug interdiction.
