In an unexpected turn of events, the Senate, which was initially scheduled to adjourn today, decided to postpone their break until next week. This will allow for ongoing immigration discussions involving border policy, consequential concessions, and legislative requirements to be potentially concluded, according to Majority Leader Chuck Schumer.
Conversations on border policy have been increasingly paramount due to a pressing migrant crisis at the southern border with Mexico. While the White House has proposed multiple concessions to move ahead with more restrictive policies, a consensus is yet to be reached.
