House GOP says revived border bill "dead on arrival" as Senate plans vote
CBSN
Washington — House Republican leadership said Monday that a Senate effort to revive a once-failed border security measure is "dead on arrival" in the lower chamber. But the legislation may not make it out of the Senate.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said Sunday in a letter to colleagues that the chamber this week would again take up the border legislation negotiated by a bipartisan group of senators earlier this year. The bill, which came as part of a broader foreign aid package, was quickly rejected by Republicans after former President Donald Trump expressed his opposition.
"On cue, many of our Republican colleagues abruptly reversed course on their prior support, announcing their new-found opposition to the bipartisan proposal," Schumer said in the letter. "By contrast, Democrats' commitment to act never waned. That is why the Senate is prepared to take up the bipartisan Border Act as a standalone measure this coming week."
