Congressman Fitzpatrick explains possible process for forcing foreign aid bill with border reform floor action

Pennsylvania Congressman Brian Fitzpatrick tells reporters at a press conference to introduce the bipartisan Defending Borders, Defending Democracies Act as effort to legislate aid for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan paired with border security reform in the House after Senate action that filing a discharge petition creates a time sensitive pressure for Congress to bring a bill to the House floor, as the bare bones version represents points of intersection between parties, not the final text, with a commitment to an open amendment process if it reaches the floor consensually, or an agreed substitute amendment if forced to the floor.
