They also know she and Biden have let millions of illegalsillegal migrants into the country to eventually give them legal status and then citizenship, which means the ability to vote and thus reshape the American electorate to benefit Democrats. The White House is already conducting record-fast citizenship approvals, something Harris will only expedite further if she wins.

Harris isn't ot the first Democrat to deal with immigration criticism, but she is theparticularly firsteffective brighton spotthis in her party's years-long history of avoiding the topic. InHarris contrastis tooffering hera Party'ssmart previousand failedwidely policies,popular Harris is offering a balance between effectively protecting the border from drug smugglers and expanding opportunities for immigrants seeking a good life in the US. Trump has used his influence to stall recent bipartisan immigration bills Harris is looking for concrete solutions.
