Trump's 'Slush Fund' Undermines Senate Immigration Bill
A significant setback for President Trump and party leaders, the Senate Immigration Bill collapsed due to issues related to a 'slush fund.' The proposed funding for immigration agencies was intended to pass before a legislative recess.
The collapse was a significant setback for Mr. Trump and party leaders, who had hoped to pass roughly $70 billion in funding for Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Border Patrol and other agencies before lawmakers began a week-long recess.
