"Senate Nears Immigration Deal Amid National Security Concerns"

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer announced that a national security bill, including foreign aid and a border security agreement, could be revealed as early as Friday. The deal, which aims to enhance border security and address illegal crossings, has faced opposition from Republicans, including former President Donald Trump. Despite progress in negotiations, concerns remain about GOP commitment to funding the immigration agreement. The package also includes funding for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan. Schumer plans for potential votes on the package next week, with the first vote expected no later than Wednesday.
