The border security reforms proposed by Republicans in return for their support for more aid to Ukraine are a “total non-starter,” Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said Tuesday, The Hill reported.
Schumer added that the proposal was taken largely from the House-passed Secure the Border Act of 2023, which didn’t receive even one Democratic vote. “Senate Republicans basically copy and pasted large chunks of the House’s radical H.R. 2 bill and that’s their asking price for helping Ukraine,” Schumer said. “Making Ukraine funding conditional on the hard-right border policies that can’t ever pass Congress is a huge mistake by our Republican colleagues.”
