"Republicans Link Ukraine Aid to Immigration and Border Reforms"

Senate Republicans, including Lindsey Graham, Tom Cotton, and James Lankford, have proposed sweeping changes to border policies, including making it harder for migrants to seek asylum and codifying the "remain in Mexico" policy. They plan to demand these changes in exchange for their support for President Biden's funding requests for aid to Ukraine. The White House has indicated openness to negotiation but disagrees with many of the proposed policies. Democrats remain divided on the proposal but open to discussing certain policy changes, such as a pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants brought to the U.S. as children.
