WASHINGTON, May 21 (Reuters) – The U.S. Senate is abandoning President Donald Trump’s June 1 deadline for passing immigration enforcement funding, Republican senators said on Thursday.
Senators Bill Cassidy and John Kennedy, both of Louisiana, told reporters the Senate was beginning its Memorial Day recess without passing the bill that was intended to contain $1 billion for Trump ballroom and related security and $72 billion for migrant deportations.
