The Senate was voting Wednesday on a measure that would send emergency humanitarian relief to the southern border but is markedly different from a bill passed by the House -- leaving lawmakers with little time to reconcile their bills before they leave town on Thursday for the July Fourth recess.
The Senate’s version doesn’t go as far in laying out clear standards on detention centers and how children must be treated. It also calls for $145 million to go to the Pentagon to aid with border control, which House Democrats are not likely to support. He added: “I think that a lot of people are starting to realize that I was right when I said we have a crisis of the border.”
