I seem to remember there was a bipartisan bill that made the asylum application process more strict and harder to get in under but that bill got voted down for some reason. Maybe those who are really concerned about the border situation would be frustrated with the people who voted down that bill. Maybe because of the hypocrisy.

It wasn't the Biden administration that stopped that bill. I'm really wondering, are people ok with things unfolding like this? I can imagine someone saying, well that's just part of the game of politics. You have to act like there's a great calamity to motivate your voter base, find a scapegoat and try to impeach somebody. -But when an actual attempt at solution comes along, oh no, we don't want that solved, not till after the election.

What I don't understand is, why wouldn't that kind of dealing lose votes?

It wasnt bipartisan. Some rino hacks helped write that bill, thats it.

Ok my mistake, rino hacks. So it was the real actual republicans that voted against an attempt to address the crisis at the border?
