CLAIM: Vice President Kamala Harris is "Fighting to fix our broken immigration system," while former President Donald Trump is "Trying to stop her."
While serving as a senator from California, Harris was one of 21 senators who signed a letter to their colleagues calling for them to reject Trump's "FY19 funding request for a costly and ineffective border wall" and "New Border Patrol agents."
"As your Committee considers fiscal year 2019 appropriations for the Department of Homeland Security, we ask you to reject President Trump's FY19 funding request for a costly and ineffective border wall, new Border Patrol agents, and a large increase in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement personnel and detention beds," the letter began.
Harris has also previously stated she is in favor of giving illegal immigrants in the U.S. taxpayer-funded health care, she compared the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency to the Ku Klux Klan in November 2018 during a Senate hearing, and she had previously signed a letter criticizing the Trump administration for temporarily closing the border, arguing that it violated federal law.
"Kamala Harris supports increasing the number of border patrol agents. Donald Trump blocked a bill to increase the number of border patrol agents. Kamala Harris supports investing in new technology to block fentanyl from entering the country. Donald Trump blocked funding for technology to block fentanyl from entering the country."
Kamala Harris is fighting to fix our broken immigration system.
Sixty-nine percent of voters believe that Harris is in favor of open borders, while 31 percent believe she is against open borders.
