Kamala Harris’s Border Strategy
Vice President Kamala Harris recently made headlines with her visit to the U.S.-Mexico border in Arizona. Her primary aim was to advocate for tighter asylum restrictions and to counter the mounting criticism from her Republican opponent, Donald Trump. Harris used this opportunity to demonstrate her alleged support for enhanced border security and to outline her administration’s current and future strategies.
The truth, though, is that she realized she needed to do at least the bear minimum and show up once during the campaign to make it look as though she cares. When we know she doesn’t.

One of the focal points of Harris’s visit was her emphasis on bipartisan cooperation and the integration of new technologies to effectively address ongoing border concerns – though her last attempt at a “bipartisan” deal was a bill that would have codified a pathway for citizenship for millions of illegal aliens who have arrived since she entered the White House. Critics, however, have been vocal about the administration’s approach. GOP figures like House Committee Chairman Mark Green argue that the policies set by the administration have inadvertently fueled human trafficking, impacting over 1.1 million individuals, many of whom are vulnerable immigrants.
Critics and Supporters Speak Out
Opponents urge the administration to swiftly reevaluate its policies, highlighting that the rapid changes compromise national security. Harris contends that a balanced approach is necessary, stating, “I reject the false choice that suggests we must choose either between securing our border and creating a system that is orderly, safe and humane. We can and we must do both.”

During the visit, Harris proposed reviving bipartisan agreements to increase funding for border agents and equipment aimed at detecting illegal substances, such as fentanyl. “Stopping transnational criminal organizations and strengthening our border is not new to me, and it is a long-standing priority of mine,” said Harris, reinforcing her commitment to addressing border challenges.
Let’s just hope people make the right decision in November and then we can have the adults back in charge of the border.
