What Kamala Harris would see if she visited the U.S.-Mexico border
J.D. Long-GarcíaJune 17, 2021
 

In March, President Joe Biden charged Vice President Kamala Harris with addressing the escalating number of immigrants at the U.S.-Mexico border. Since then, certain news outlets, like Fox News, have tracked the number of days that have gone by without Ms. Harris visiting the border. On June 15, that number was 83.

Last week, Ms. Harris traveled to Guatemala to meet with President Alejandro Giammattei and expressed the Biden administration’s goal to “help Guatelmalans find hope at home.” During a press conference on June 7, she told Guatemalans thinking of making the journey north to the United States: “Do not come. Do not come.”

“O.K., that’s like saying, ‘Stay home and die,’” according to the Rev. Pat Murphy, a Scalabrini priest who runs the Casa del Migrante shelter in Tijuana, Baja California. “That message is falling on deaf ears.”

"On the campaign trail last year, Ms. Harris advocated executive action on immigration until a legislative solution to address policy flaws could be found. "

I just checked the Constitution and can't seem to locate the place that says executive action can be used in lieu of legislative action. :shrug:
