Anna Moneymaker/Getty Images(WASHINGTON) As expected, the Senate s vote to advance the bipartisan national security supplemental bill with the negotiated border provisions failed on Wednesday. It s the first of two votes Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is forcing on the bill the second of which removes the border provisions, but maintains foreign aid measures.
In the procedural vote, the Senate voted 49-50 to proceed with the national security supplemental bill, which includes aid for Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan as well as the new border policy deal. Sixty votes were needed to advance the legislation.
Republicans in the Senate had signaled that they would sink the national security supplemental bill despite pleas from key negotiators just before the vote. The Senate will soon vote on the second option Schumer presented, which is a procedural vote on whether to begin debate on a national security package that includes the foreign aid but none of the border provisions or funds.
