"Congress Delays Ukraine Aid, Focuses on Border Talks Amid Record Illegal Crossings"

Congress has abandoned efforts to provide emergency military aid to Ukraine before the end of the year, as negotiators failed to reach a deal that Republicans demanded to tie the funding to a crackdown on migration across the US-Mexico border. The fate of Ukraine aid and the task of drafting new immigration laws will now be postponed until early next year, along with the challenge of reaching a broader spending agreement to avoid a government shutdown.
