Immigration Reform 2015: Republican Senators Fail In Second Vote To Defund Obama Immigrant Plan

U.S. Senate Republicans failed to block funding for President Barack Obama's immigrantion plan for the second time in two days Wednesday in an ongoing battle over how to fund the Department of Homeland Security. The 53-47 vote was a second attempt at undermining Obama's executive actions that offers several million undocumented immigrants a reprieve from deportation, which agencies under Homeland Security are charged with carrying out.
