The House of Representatives planned to vote on Friday on revised border security legislation that would makes it easier to deport Central American child migrants from the southwestern border, satisfying a key demand from conservative Republicans. House Republican lawmakers said they will try again to pass two separate bills that failed to win enough support from the party on Thursday. One provides additional funding for border security and to care for tens of thousands of Central American children and the other bill weakens their legal refugee status and reverses much of President Barack Obama's 2-year-old policy delaying deportation efforts against children brought to the United States illegally by their parents. The funding bill is expected to add $35 million in federal reimbursements for states that deploy National Guard troops to secure the southwestern border with Mexico, bringing the total to $694 million, lawmakers said.

He urged the international community to step up efforts to end the attacks against Israel. "I have been in close touch with Prime Minister Netanyahu, with U.N. Special Coordinator Robert Serry and with other regional partners," Kerry said in a statement.
