Who killed the "Border Bill"?

The Inflation Reduction Act is a great example, and today's bills often include pork that is unrelated to the title. In fact, the IRA had nothing to do with lowering inflation and was primarily focused on green energy investments and tax credits and establishing a process for CMS to essentially 'force' negotiate lower drug prices with huge penalties for non-compliance.
Right! And all it did was jack up inflation
 
The immigration "Bill" was just part of a very large aid bill, mostly for the defense of Taiwan, Ukraine, and Israel. It was a Senate bill, where the Democrats hold the majority.

The $118 billion bill, called the Emergency National Security Supplemental Appropriations Act only contained $22Billion for the border, so it really wasn't a 'border bill' at all. And, the border provisions weren't the main reason the bill failed.
After they stripped out the foreign aid it was defeated more soundly 43-50
