Migrant crisis
The Republican-controlled US Senate has approved a bill to send aid to the border with Mexico, as the image of a drowned migrant family shocked the US.
It earlier rejected a rival aid bill from the Democratic-led House of Representatives imposing restrictions on US immigration agencies.
Lawmakers in both chambers now face pressure to reconcile the two bills.
Reports of migrant deaths, poor detention conditions and neglected child detainees have shaped the debate.
