What took Congress so long to make a deal to address the border crisis?

Another prime example of politics in the Trump era. The House and the Senate passed $4.5 billion packages to aid border officials. But Republicans and Democrats can't agree on what the money should be used for, and they almost went home or a Fourth of July break Friday at the height of the migrant crisis without doing anything about it
