News about Senate

Senate Republicans again rejected the strongest, most comprehensive bipartisan border bill we've seen in decades. A sad day. While the GOP isn't interested today in getting this done—we’ll keep trying. It’s too important to our national security, our communities, our country.

Today, we will vote the border security bill Democrats and Republicans spent months on together. Poll after poll shows a large majority of Americans support our position of getting a bipartisan bill done. It’s time for the GOP to show they're serious about solving the problem.

As the Senate again rejects border bill, this time losing more R and D support and going down on a 43-50 vote, asked Jon Tester about Rs saying the revote was just to protect Ds ahead of November.

Senate NOW voting on whether to begin work on the bipartisan border security and immigration bill as a standalone measure. It was blocked earlier this year with foreign aid included. 60 votes are needed to advance the bill. @cspan 2
