"Schumer's Border and Ukraine Deal Vote Next Week in Doubt"

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer plans to hold a vote next week on a measure combining an immigration crackdown with military aid for Ukraine and Israel, but faces resistance from Republicans in both chambers. Negotiators are finalizing a plan to address migration across the US-Mexico border, which is seen as crucial for further aid to Ukraine, but its prospects are uncertain due to opposition from right-wing Republicans and former President Donald J. Trump. The text of the agreement is yet to be released, and Senate Republicans' support remains unclear, with a test vote expected by Wednesday.
