New Harris border security ads mark 180 from years of liberal immigration advocacy
Story by Michael Lee • 17h
The Harris campaign released a new ad touting Vice President Kamala Harris’ work as a California prosecutor to crack down on the border, a seemingly different message than the one she attempted to highlight while preparing to be sworn in as a U.S. senator.
"Kamala Harris has spent decades fighting violent crime. As a border state prosecutor, she took on drug cartels and jailed gang members for smuggling weapons and drugs across the border," the ad, titled, "Tougher," says.
The ad also points to the Democratic presidential nominee’s time as vice president, arguing she "backed the toughest border control bill in decades. And as president, she will hire thousands more border agents and crack down on fentanyl and human trafficking."
The bill referenced in the ad, a bipartisan agreement between President Biden and a handful of senators, was voted down by Republicans in the Senate in February. A later attempt to revive the bill was also rejected by GOP lawmakers in May, despite the president’s plea for lawmakers to "stop playing politics" with border security.
