A Democratic emergency spending failed to gain traction in the U.S. Senate. Sheridan Media’s Ron Richter has the details.
The emergency funding bill failed to garner enough votes to move forward, as Senate Republicans voted against the bill that would have included aid for Israel, Ukraine and Taiwan. U.S. Senator John Barrasso (R-WY) spoke on the Senate floor prior to the vote, and said the bill needs more funding for the crisis at the southern border before Senate Republicans can get behind it.

Barrasso said Democrats have not put a single bill on the floor of the United States Senate this year that would stop the flood of illegal immigrants and they seem to welcome the national security crisis at our southern border. The Senator said that is wrong, and it must change.
