Not even close to the same thing.

The border bill was a bipartisan bill. There was stuff that each party didn't like. But it's called "compromise". It was killed with one sentence uttered by the convict, and no other reason. Well, Johnson was a coward whom -after the convict spoke- said he wouldn't bring it to the floor. If the convict hadn't opened his mouth, it may have gotten to the floor. We'll never know whether it would have passed or not. It wasn't a slam-dunk.

The Reps and Dems both do "messaging bills" that have no chance to pass because they have nothing the other party wants, and lots the other party hates. The bill you referred to about abortion evidently was one of those bills. It was not a bipartisan compromise.
