Before breaking for recess, Congress approved an emergency bill that provides 4.6 billion dollars to ease overcrowding and harsh conditions at US holding facilities. "And this vote, the yeses are 305. The nays are 102. The motion is adopted." The legislation was a disappointment for some House Democrats who wanted to get more help for detained migrant families and children. "The children come first. At the end of the day, we have to make sure that resources needed to the protect the children are available." The bill now goes the president who is expected to sign it.
