2020 Campaign: Kamala Harris Supported Decriminalizing Illegal Immigration, Free Health Care for Migrants
by BOB PRICE 21 Jul 2024
During her 2020 Democratic Party Primary campaign for President, then-Senator Kamala Harris pledged to support the decriminalization of illegal immigration and free health care for illegal immigrants. After being named Border Czar for the Biden administration, Vice President Harris stood by and watched as more than 11 million migrants illegally entered the United States illegally.
During her 2020 campaign for president, Senator Harris repeatedly flip-flopped on the issue of decriminalizing illegal immigration, Breitbart News’ Joel Pollak reported at the time. During a Democratic Party candidate debate in June 2019, Harris was one of a group of her fellow Democrats who raised her hand indicating she was in favor of decriminalization. A short time later, Harris reversed her position during an interview on “The View,” saying, “I’m not in favor of decriminalizing or not having consequence for, let me be very clear, we have to have a secure border, but I am in favor of saying that we’re not going to treat people who are undocumented cross the border as criminals.”
Megan McCain pressed the liberal California senator on the issue, causing yet another reveal in Harris’s view on the subject. When pressed again, Harris said she would decriminalize illegal immigration and just make is a civil matter.
