so they did not see they were not able to see the same conditions that the lawyers had seen. then we learned that the day after our visit, the kids were moved back. so it s critically important that members of congress be given the authority to drop in unannounced so that we can see for ourselves. it s also critically important that without local border patrol sector chiefs creating some kind of standard, it means that congress is going to have to step in and create some humanitarian standards. we tried to do that with the house supplemental bill. and i ll tell you those standards didn t go as far as many of us wanted them to. but we wanted a bill that would pass in the senate. and unfortunately, senator mcconnell would not allow for that, would not allow for a debate on those standards, on what we ve seen, what we ve heard, protections to be put into the bill. we have to keep trying. i ve asked for field hearings
border. comeses who has democrat consider changes to the emergency funding bill they re yelling at each other. and joining us live from washington, d.c., and a griff, the white house is threatening the democrats if you pass that bill, without stuff we want in it, the president will veto it. j that s right, steve, jen, brian and don t be deceived by sun in capitol storms in that dome behind me let me think two pictures here what mexico is succeeding in doing. other is what washington is failing to do now that house supplemental bill is stuck. house democrats can t get it to the floor for a vote many up in arms over treatment of children at the border here s the rules committee, chairman, jim mcgovern who can t get rule passed to start voting. listen. there s no excuse for children to be treated that way. you know, i think there s a special place in hell for the people who have allowed this policy to go forward. steve as you mention even if
house does pass it appear dead on arrival and qhows will veto it in current form in a statement monday office of management in budget writes put forward a partisan bill that interfunds necessary account in seeks to take advantage by inserting policy provisions, that would make our country less safe. in clock is ticking president gave him two weeks to act but really two days because congress will jailbreak as it is known on thursday for their july recess, meanwhile the other picture mexico, hardening border with more troops. mexico secretary of defense lew we sandoval announcing this, in the northern part of the country we have deployed a total of almost 15,000 troops composed of national guard elements and military units guys i can fell you u.s. border patrol source say they are, in fact, seeing significant reduction of apprehensions in rio grand brian which you were mentioning last hour they said possibly as many as 3,000 last week will see what official numbers are when they come in
threatening this morning that they qowld go ahead and veto it. because there s no money added for beds for i.c.e. to detain people, zero wall money, nor anymore money for additional border security measures instead, they re pushing more protections for children. you would think if they come up with something somebody would both sides would get something out of the bill. but in this one, it sounds like it is all lob side where had it is what democrats want, and nothing that the president wants. so steve this is what is is is so frustrating no one now didn t deny that this was a crisis both the humanitarian and nasa security crisis. so you re absolutely right. we need funding to cover both sides of the crisis we absolutely need it for the children, for the dead space but i.c.e. needs it, cvp needs it to handle humanitarian crisis and nasa security crisis. they can t be lob sided or this
