House Democrats urge Senate to advance Biden border security request — Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) walks out of a closed-door caucus meeting after the House approved a 45-day funding bill to keep federal agencies open, Sept. 30, 2023, in Washington. Schumer is headed to Israel this weekend to discuss what resources the United States can provide for its war against Hamas. The New York Democrat's office said Friday he's leading a bipartisan group of senators to the country âto show the United States' unwavering support."

One of the largest Democratic caucuses in the House is urging the Senate to advance a border security bill reflecting the supplemental request made by President Joe Biden in order to address illegal immigration and the smuggling of fentanyl at the southern border.
