Bipartisan immigration bill again dies in Senate

In a bit of Democrat-engineered political theatre, the Senate again failed for the second time to get over the 60-vote threshold needed to advance the bipartisan-negotiated immigration reform bill that was first failed in a February floor vote, CBS News reports.

By a 43 to 50 vote, the bill was again stopped despite having been negotiated by conservative James Lankford of Oklahoma, but Lankford could not stand up to Donald Trump’s demand to prevent any legislation from passing to give Joe Biden a win, so even if it had gotten out of the Senate, the House would kill it to maintain their culture war talking points. (Wow.  Sounds just like 2014.)

“The contrast between Democrats and Republicans is clear today and will be even clearer in November. Democrats want to fix the border and get something done. Republicans want to give speeches, let the border fester and do absolutely nothing to fix the problem,” Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said after the expected outcome Thursday afternoon, giving Democrats another instance to show the GOP’s unwillingness to govern.
