The problem is that this bill isn’t needed if only the federal government would actually protect the border and send the illegals back to their home countries. If Customs and Border Patrol were allowed to do what Texas is doing, the illegals would start to get the message and the inflow of illegals would stop. Michael Letts
The new ‘border security’ bill is about legalizing illegals - American Thinker
"The Democrats in Congress obviously aren’t serious about stopping the crisis at the U.S. southern border, judging by the bill that they negotiated to address the crisis. That said, the Republicans who agreed to this bill might as well change their party affiliation.
“ 'I have no doubt that the Senate can, once again, rise to the occasion and lead America forward,” wrote Senate majority leader Chuck Schumer on X (Twitter).
"Not only does it show where their loyalties lie (and it’s not with the United States), but it will anger their voters, making it less likely they will be re-elected this fall." . . .
. . ."Sadly, it doesn’t look as though it will do that. It does look like a way to allow 5,000 illegals a day into the country and give them work visas. The more people read through the bill, the more problems they find.
“ 'This Joe Biden/Chuck Schumer Open Border Bill is an absolute non-starter and will further incentivize thousands of illegals to pour in across our borders daily,” Rep. Elise Stefanik tweeted." . . .
A border bill so bad even Mitch McConnell is now against it - Monica Showalter "So, McConnell went from loudly praising the measure yesterday, to suddenly saying he was against it, too:
"According to the Associated Press:
In a dramatic turnaround, Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell recommended to GOP senators in a closed-door meeting that they vote against the first procedural vote Wednesday, according to two people familiar with the meeting who were not authorized to talk publicly about it and spoke anonymously." . . .
Biden inherited a border that was under control, and then he tore it all down... - Revolver News The National Review:
Biden inherited a border that was under control via humane and lawful policies that had been put in place by the Trump administration, most importantly Remain in Mexico. He then tore them all down and has spent years cynically and dishonestly blaming the resulting chaos on his predecessor. Whereas Trump used existing authorities to come up with ways to control the border, Biden has ignored the law to wave in millions of illegal immigrants. . . .
In response to President Biden’s veto threat, Johnson labeled it as an “act of betrayal,” expressing concern for Israel’s security amid ongoing conflicts. Other Republicans criticized Biden’s stance, with Representative Mike Garcia deeming it “galactically dumb” to turn away bipartisan support for the aid package based on political considerations.

Legislative Stalemate: The proposed Senate deal for border security is described as “dead,” with little hope of moving forward due to political deadlock.
Strategic Delays: Republicans are portrayed as delaying border security measures to maintain it as an election issue, with implications for the upcoming vote.
Skepticism Over Biden’s Bill: Criticism is raised against Biden’s border bill, suggesting it merely perpetuates the status quo without effectively securing the border.
