Republican Senator Lindsey Graham voted against Biden's bipartisan border bill, which had garnered support from both parties and an endorsement from the National Border Patrol Council. The bill aimed to strengthen national security, improve the immigration system, and address the issue of fentanyl at the border. Despite the bill's bipartisan nature and months of good-faith negotiations, it was blocked by Republicans. Critics, including Senate Democrats and Senator Schumer, have accused those who voted against the bill, particularly Graham, of not being serious about fixing border issues.

Republicans cannot—cannot—claim to be serious about fixing the border while voting against strong, bipartisan border security. That is exactly what happened one month ago.
