"Border politics: GOP passes bill while Democrats accused of inaction"

House Republicans passed a border security crackdown measure, H.R. 2, after months of public infighting and last-minute changes. The bill boosts border technology and funding, restarts border wall construction, adds new restrictions on asylum seekers, and more. The bill faced opposition from both moderate and conservative members, but ultimately passed with the support of most of the conference. The bill is dead on arrival in the Democratic-controlled Senate.
