Senate in overnight session as Republicans debate limits on $1.8B Trump settlement
The Senate is working overnight to pass immigration funding legislation as Republicans debate amendments to block a $1.776 billion settlement fund for President Trump. A Democratic effort to block the fund failed, but Republican Sen. Bill Cassidy plans further amendments, testing party unity. The settlement, linked to Trump's lawsuit against the IRS, faces opposition from some GOP senators and the acting attorney general, who called it 'largely inoperative.'
