BREAKING NEWS: Senate votes 59-41 to repeal Trump's declaration of an emergency at the border with Marco Rubio and Mitt Romney leading 12-strong Republican rebellion

President Trump immediately tweeted that he would veto the measure

A dozen Republicans joined House and Senate Democrats to advance it

Trump warned lawmakers they'll have to go through him to end his border emergency; said Thursday he will use the power of his veto pen

Trump said he would veto a bipartisan resolution senators plan to pass today that would terminate his national emergency

Bill has the support of at least eight Republicans, guaranteeing it will pass

Said he would support legislation reining in executive power, if Republicans support his border emergency now, but it wasn't enough to change their minds

A senator said Wednesday that the White House sent word that Trump would not accept a similar deal but Trump appeared to change his mind

President refused to back off his emergency though: 'I'll probably have to veto. It's not going to be overturned

Democratic leader Chuck Schumer called it a 'red-letter day in the history of how the United States functions' as he rallied senators to vote the emergency down

In the most significant legislative rebuke of President Donald Trump to date, the Senate voted Thursday to terminate his emergency designation to build a border wall.

 

The 59-41 vote included 12 Republicans who crossed the president in order to advance the measure, which has already cleared the Democratic-run House.

 

That number of GOP supporters, which appeared to mushroom in the last 24 hours, was enough to easily ensure passage, setting up what would be the first veto of Trump's presidency.

Trump didn't take long to reveal how he would respond. He blasted out a one-word tweet in all capital letters: 'VETO!'

The measure would have the effect of terminating Trump's use of the National Emergencies Act to obtain funds to build a border wall – despite a standoff with Democrats during the government shutdown that resulted in Trump being denied the $5.7 billion he was requesting for that purpose

However, supporters of the measure were short of the 67 votes needed to override the veto.

 

After Trump vetoes the measure, the House and Senate would each have to muster the two-thirds majority to overturn it.

 

The vote came hours after Trump indicated lawmakers would have to go through him to end his border emergency. He said Thursday that he will use the power of his pen for the first time in his presidency.

 

A dozen Republicans joined in the rebellion. The list included members of the powerful Appropriations Committee, which has amassed institutional power by steering funds as designated through spending legislation, as well as institutionalists wary of ceding congressional authority to the executive.
