"Yes, the Republican sponsored amendment required the funding be taken away from other parts of border enforcement"

My point remains.

This is what you said:

"Did the 1986 bill have strong border security?"

And this what I replied.:

"The same Senate voted just a few days ago to stop funding for a wall. "

Bottom line: Funding was stopped for a wall by The Senate.
And your crack "Did the 1986 bill have strong border security?" will bring the same answer, the Senate is not including a strong border security this time either.
It's 1986 redux.

That's the purpose of a conference. So if that's the case then, why even bother with a House bill?
