And he's right. If Schumer wants a border support bill, all he has to do is take up the House Bill that's already passed.
Except the House bill is also a messaging bill. It was also just about performative optics, just to poke Democrats in the eye, and never about actually securing the border.
You're never going to get legislation adopted to change our border policy unless the parties actually negotiate on a bill. The House Bill wasn't that. The Senate bill was that, until Trump called off the negotiations because he didn't want the GOP and the Democrats to reach an agreement (note: it's entirely possible that there's no agreement to be reached).
But the House bill was far more a performative optics messaging piece than the Senate bill ever was....
