For almost three years, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) did nothing as President Joe Biden caught and released millions of illegal immigrants into the United States. Cities such as Denver, Chicago, and New York cried out for relief from the deluge, but Democrats denied that a crisis even existed let alone needed to be remedied.

Then, this February, after Sen. James Lankford (R-OK) struck a deal with the White House, border security suddenly became a “pressing” issue for Democrats that had to be addressed by over 275 pages of legislative text that had to be voted on immediately.
