WASHINGTON: It will make illegal immigration tougher, including granting the executive the authority to close the border when a certain threshold is crossed, and open up additional pathways for legal migration, including provisions for additional green cards and spousal work visas.

The $20 billion funding to step up border controls is a part of a broader $118 billion national security supplemental that also includes funding for military assistance of over $60 billion to Ukraine and $14 billion to Israel, and to beef up security footprint in the Indo-Pacific.
