Vice President Kamala Harris vows on her long-awaited new campaign website to establish an “earned pathway to citizenship” for migrants who cross the border illegally.
“She knows that our immigration system is broken and needs comprehensive reform that includes strong border security and an earned pathway to citizenship,” says the website — which only went online Sunday, a month and a half into her campaign, and has already been criticized as too vague.
Former President Donald Trump, who Harris is going up against for the White House, has claimed he will enact a large deportation initiative to expel illegal migrants from the US.
Harris’ website policies on the border, which voters rank as a high-priority issue, don’t add anything beyond harking back to a related bipartisan Senate bill.
“As President, she will bring back the bipartisan border security bill and sign it into law,” her website states without offering any other proposals on the crisis.
