Op-ed: Dems aren’t even hiding it — Kamala Harris promises mass amnesty and more illegal immigration

By Andrew R. Arthur on July 30, 2024

Progressive Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren appeared on CNN’s “State of the Union” on Sunday and called for “comprehensive immigration reform” — including a “pathway to citizenship”, i.e., amnesty, for 11 million illegal immigrants.

She then said the quiet part out loud, admitting that a President Kamala Harris “will work with Congress to get that done.”

This Democratic call for amnesty is nothing new.

One of the first acts of the Biden-Harris administration was to release a framework for the “U.S. Citizenship Act.”

Ignore the title: that bill would have put virtually every illegal immigrant in the United States — including serious criminals — on a path to citizenship, while at the same time opening the door for aliens deported under Trump to return.

What’s more, that Biden-Harris proposal would have weakened immigration enforcement and doubled future legal immigration.
