The vote was 245-182, with thirteen Republicans voted with Democrats to pass the measure.

The resolution will soon be taken up by the Senate, where it will put Republican unity to the test, though Senate leaders have signaled they will not bring it to a vote immediately.

The President has been preparing for Republican Senators contradicting his policy prescriptions, and has upped his pressure on Republicans over border security and has urged them not to side with Democrats.

“I hope our great Republican Senators don’t get led down the path of weak and ineffective Border Security,” the President tweeted on Monday. “Without strong Borders, we don’t have a Country – and the voters are on board with us. Be strong and smart, don’t fall into the Democrats ‘trap’ of Open Borders and Crime!”

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell told reporters on Tuesday that he expects the Senate will vote on the resolution before the next Senate recess, which will take place the week of March 18.

“We will certainly be voting on it,” he said.
