GOP Revives Immigration Bill

New York Times: “The Senate voted along party lines on Wednesday to take up Republicans’ $70 billion immigration crackdown bill, but several GOP senators suggested they would not allow it to pass without new language barring President Trump from creating a fund to compensate his political allies.”

“The 53-to-46 vote began debate on legislation that was supposed to unite Republicans around Mr. Trump’s hard-line immigration enforcement agenda, but has instead become a flashpoint for clashes between the president and GOP members of Congress just months before the midterm elections.”
