"Immigration Bill Clash: Trump and GOP's Opposition to Border Security Measures"

TL;DR Summary
Former President Donald Trump and some Republicans oppose a bipartisan immigration deal, claiming it would allow 5,000 illegal border crossings per day, but negotiators clarify that the bill aims to end "catch and release" and detain migrants immediately for asylum processing. The deal includes provisions to shut down the border if certain thresholds are reached, but migrants would not be allowed into the U.S. unless they pass an asylum interview or are held under government supervision. The bill aims to discourage illegal crossings and raise the standard for seeking asylum while providing resources for border security.
