it is written by senator lankford, republican of oklahoma, senator murphy and senator sinema. this legislation would actually help secure the border and provide essential national security funding. it would reform broken laws that are not working to process asylum seekers at our borders and it would provide desperately needed resources to our agencies to allow them to implement these new provisions. while these new processes are being implemented, the bipartisan border bill would provide for a temporary suspension of asylum in between ports of entry, if the number of asylum seekers arriving at the border exceeds the capacity of dhs to process. i have some concerns about the bill, but it reflects a genuine bipartisan effort to create solutions to outdated laws and underfunded that will plagued the immigration system for years. i was really disappointed, as i'm sure senator lankford was, to see most of my republican colleagues vote against that bipartisan bill. though the bill was written by senate republicans designated negotiator, senator lankford, and endorsed by the national
