Senate Faces Contentious Vote on Bipartisan Border Security Bill

TL;DR Summary
The Biden administration is challenging Senate Republicans to support a revived bipartisan border security bill, which they previously abandoned under pressure from former President Trump. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer plans a second vote, but Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell has indicated Republicans will oppose it. The bill, criticized by immigrant rights activists, remains unchanged and includes provisions similar to Trump's border policies. Democrats aim to highlight Republican obstructionism, while Republicans dismiss the vote as a political maneuver.
