Border security debate tests Biden aid to Ukraine
A bipartisan group of senators weighs a $110 billion supplemental package that would fund Ukraine defense while tightening border controls. President Biden touts the plan as the toughest reforms yet, while Donald Trump denounces it as a bad bill and House Speaker Mike Johnson signals it could be dead on arrival. The talks focus on credible fear standards and humanitarian parole limits, with new emergency authority to shut the border if overwhelmed, plus funding for border patrols and asylum officers.
