This bill would also likely contain a number of poison-pill policy riders such as border security measures, while providing no emergency funding for Ukraine — a key White House demand. By transforming the House CR into a bill that can win Democratic support and one that Biden would sign if it landed on his desk, senators would then pass the bill and send it back to the House, where McCarthy would have two choices.
