Squashed only because Trump needed to keep his #1 talking point alive for the 2024 election...

attached is Sen. Lankford's speech transcript prior to the vote.

Note the last paragraph...
-------------------
"So, today I'm going to vote "no" on a bill I think should pass, but there's been no effort to really get this to pass. Let's get us back to the table. Let's actually resolve the issue as we need to get done. With that, I yield the floor."
------------------

Note that Trump has never called on Congress to pass a Border Security and Immigration Bill during his second term...ever wonder why? I can answer that...he knows it's a "Wedge Issue" that his followers will always follow him on...he really doesn't want it fixed...even when it causes grief for Red State Farmers, Construction Firms, Hotel Owners, etc...not to mention States with Fentanyl deaths for lack of High Volume Scanners still sitting in warehouses.
