This afternoon the impeachment of Homeland Security Secretary Mayorkas didn't pass in the House, when a few Republicans defected. And the stand-alone aid to Israel bill likewise failed to pass.
The Washington Examiner's Byron York writes about the immigration bill being considered in the Senate.
The bill, produced during months of secret negotiations among three senators, Democrat Chris Murphy, independent Kyrsten Sinema, and Republican James Lankford, reflected that difference. The three lawmakers produced, essentially, a bill to regularize the flow of migrants into the country in the guise of a bill to control the flow.
Every voter who has been awake for the last three years knows that the border crisis began the day Biden took office and is directly attributable to the changes he made in U.S. immigration and border policy.
York quotes a former Sen. Rubio chief of staff who claims "big immigration bills are doomed to fail,” The reason is that the two major parties are too far apart on the key issue of how much immigration should be tolerated and legalized.
