The Biden administration is goading Senate Republicans to support a revival of the failed bipartisan border deal that they abandoned after former President Trump came out against it.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) is planning a second vote on the bill Thursday, though Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) on Monday told President Biden that Republicans plan to vote against it.
White House officials on Wednesday sought to put the onus for border inaction on the GOP.
The blame game highlights the downward spiral the deal has taken from a much-touted — and much feared — actionable piece of legislation early this year to a twice-doomed messaging bill with no chance of becoming law.
The event is scheduled to begin at 2 p.m. EDT.
