Democrats as the “Open Borders” Party is More than A Talking Point

“Open borders is a right-wing talking point,” exclaimed former Obama Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Secretary Julian Castro during the second night of the Democratic presidential debates in Detroit.

The talking point to which Castro was referring to was a Washington Post op-ed by Jeh Johnson, President Obama’s former homeland security secretary, in which he wrote that decriminalizing illegal immigration was “tantamount to a public declaration” that “our borders are effectively open to all.”

Castro then added that he was “disappointed that some folks, including some folks on this stage, have taken the bait.”
