The US Senate has voted to advance a stalled immigration spending bill after Republicans removed $1bn (745m) in funding for President Donald Trump's new White House ballroom. The $1bn was intended for US Secret Service security upgrades as part of the construction, a request following April's shooting at a gala Trump attended at a hotel.
Trump has argued the new addition is necessary to host official state functions and update security facilities. He repeatedly said it would be funded by private donations.
