The Senate voted on a series of immigration measures but came up short.

In our news wrap Thursday, the Senate voted on a series of immigration measures but came up short. A bipartisan compromise came closest to the needed 60 votes, but President Trump threatened a veto. Also, Sen. Chuck Grassley leveled a rare rebuke at Attorney General Jeff Sessions, whom he accused of meddling in the legislative process over justice reform.
