Us Border Security Bill

US lawmakers voted Tuesday to reject a standalone Israel aid bill denounced by critics as a "cynical" bid to thwart a cross-party border security and foreign assistance package that would include cash for war-torn Ukraine.

President Joe Biden said Tuesday that Congress will be playing into the Kremlin's hands if it fails to renew funding for Ukraine's fight against Russian invasion -- and blamed Donald Trump for playing politics with US national security.

Former US president Donald Trump urged Republicans Monday to reject a bipartisan Senate deal trading tough new border security measures for $60 billion in Ukraine funding and other national security priorities.

President Donald Trump will sign a border security bill to avert another government shutdown, but also declare a national emergency to try to obtain funds for his promised US-Mexico border wall, a White House spokeswoman said on Thursday.

The Bill -- Border Security Economic Opportunity and Immigration Modernisation Act 2013 -- was passed by the Senate and is yet to be passed by the US House of Representatives.

Senators are finalizing a deal that could add dramatic security improvements to the U.S.-Mexico border and smooth the way for bipartisan Senate passage of far-reaching immigration legislation backed by President Barack Obama.

A far-reaching bill to remake the US immigration system is headed to the full Senate, where tough battles are brewing on gay marriage, border security and other contentious issues, with the outcome impossible to predict.
