DescriptionSenate Republicans and Democrats are in an intense battle over the contents of a resolution to honor former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, who died last week and will be laid to rest on Wednesday.

The fight has prompted Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Robert Menendez (D-N.J.) and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) to stop working together on a resolution, at least for now. As of Tuesday, both senators were offering different alternatives for language to honor Thatcher.
