Senate Republicans have unveiled a list of border security proposals that they are demanding in exchange for their support to send more assistance to Ukraine. The proposals include resuming construction of a border wall and keeping asylum seekers outside the U.S. while their case is heard. However, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has called the proposal a 'total nonstarter' and warned that injecting partisanship into bipartisan priorities will make it harder to avoid a shutdown. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell has also emphasized the need for a credible solution to the wide-open border in order to pass a bill that includes funding for Ukraine and Israel.
