Senate vote fails to pass bipartisan border security bill

A Senate vote on an already once-failed bipartisan border security package has failed again 43-50 after Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer pushed the final vote on Thursday. The vote had been widely expected to fail even though Sen. Schumer rallied lawmakers on its passage. Lawmakers have passed blame across the aisle on the failure to find a solution to the influx of migration on the southern U.S. border with Mexico.

Once again no bipartisan support for this bipartisan bill 😂

[Christian-jxnx]

When are news agencies going to actually read the bills, quote the bills to show the root of political conflict and to show their work instead of
he said she said and media interpretations, clearing up misunderstandings by the public and eliminating bias?!

[Trag-zjyo]

Immigration should be an application process. Just showing up at the border is bullshit

[MaLiArtworks]

Are these people real Americans or Traitors?

2 Chronicles 7:14
If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways,
Then
I will hear from Heaven and will forgive their sins and heal their land.

We need God’s help and guidance!

Peace, grace, love and understanding be with you all.

Enough !!! I’m truly tired of my taxes paying for nothing getting done. Shut the border or just shut the heck up, Do nothing congress

[phoenixgirl]

The border is hurting AZ and something needs to be done about it

[bubbajones]

You mean the bipartisan amnesty bill? 😳

[theRustynail]

Send the damn marines to the border. Enough is enough, the president could shut the border at any time

[jerryfitzhugh]

Good! About time they did something right!

Anything other than 0 illegal entries is an unsecured border.

Not bipartisan. The bill was pushed and supported by the biggest threat americans have ever faced.

[ConstanceHenderson-idiw]

That was stupid Bill HR2 please the American people are not stupid

[normalnormienorman]

Shocker. Good for nothing everyone of them worthless senators. What a joke this government is

[Liberty]

not the function of the police to legislate anything

[easyenetwork]

The Sheriff needs to realize that there is no incentive right now sadly for people to work together. I wish we would see more bipartisanship as well.

[chilldutchie]

Just like the healthcare, they don’t ask the nurses and doctors what would work.

[tomthelen]

Doesn’t this bill “legally” permit 4, 000 migrants PER DAY? Can you do the math?

[babyfaced]

Obviously, everyone knows when you trying to put a bill together of this magnitude you need input and buy in from all sides of the table. Not only do they need bipartisan Congress support, but they do need input from border patrol agents, social workers, and other experts. All this political posturing when the safety of the nation is at hand is ridiculous ! They're going to keep playing and I'm going to end up having to run for an office.

[aikanae]

What would the GOP campaign on if the border bill passed?
