After weeks of decrying the 'humanitarian crisis' at the border, House Republicans reject border aid
The GOP lawmakers who demanded immediate action now are accusing House Democrats of playing politics.

Despite labeling the current situation at the southern border a “humanitarian crisis,” 191 members of the House Republican caucus on Wednesday night voted against a $4.5 billion emergency aid package meant to provide proper care for migrants being held in horrific conditions inside U.S. detention facilities.
The bill eventually passed by a margin of 230-195.
House Republicans have for months demanded billions in emergency supplemental funding to address the massive border crisis, which is largely of President Donald Trump’s own making. But given a chance to address it, Republicans this week demurred.
Republicans argued that Trump would not sign the bill, as it was focused on humanitarian aid rather than a punitive approach.
