Harris visits southern border as Trump focuses on migrants
The Straits Times|September 28, 2024
Vice-President Kamala Harris was set to visit the US-Mexico border for the first time in her 2024 presidential campaign on Sept 27, as her Republican opponent Donald Trump doubles down on the message that immigrants pose a danger to America.

Ms Harris is visiting Douglas, Arizona, a border town of fewer than 17,000 people, with a message ripped from Trump's playbook, hoping to sell voters on ways she can improve the status quo.

“She has long believed we need an immigration system that is secure, fair, orderly and humane, a stark contrast from the divisive and dangerous politics of Donald Trump,” a Harris campaign aide said.

Ms Harris intends to discuss plans for the “toughest bipartisan border security plan in a generation”, the aide said.

Some seven million migrants have been arrested illegally crossing the US-Mexico border under Ms Harris and President Joe Biden, according to government data, a record high number that has fuelled criticism from Trump.
