Senate not expected to release text on border security package this week
Fox News
The release of a legislative text for a possible border security package is not expected this week, though momentum on such talks continue in the Senate.
Chad Pergram currently serves as a senior congressional correspondent for FOX News Channel (FNC). He joined the network in September 2007 and is based out of Washington, D.C.
Despite no forthcoming release, Fox was told the talks have not lost momentum, and negotiators are pleased with where things stand.
Senators are aware of the need to ship further aid to Israel and Ukraine. There is also concern that any struggle with funding the government later this month could undercut such talks.
The country began to see the effects of President Trump’s policies in his second week in office, with the White House implementing tariffs on Mexico, Canada and China; border crossings plummeting; DEI programs shuttering; the federal workforce being faced with the decision to return to the office or to resign; and more.
