If Biden has a good immigration bill, he should give a televised speech explaining it. If Republicans are rejecting it for no good reason, they would be exposed.

He has done this, and there are interviews with Republicans exposing their colleagues who are simping for Trump.

He couldn't have done it because a bipartisan immigration bill was just reached today in the Senate. If Republicans stop it because they want Trump to have an issue, Biden should adopt some of the parts they have a problem with. Then Americans will see what Republicans are up to if they continue to reject it.

Potential votes for bills are discussed long before they reach the Senate or House, for various reasons. Bills are not proposed without some idea of the potential votes, and the numerous deals that take place in order to WRITE the bills. This has been in the news for over a week, which has been the window of time for obtaining votes for (and for Trump's cowardly simps, votes against) the bill BEFORE it appears in the Senate.
