House Passes Resolution Condemning Kamala Harris’ Border Failures

The U.S. House of Representatives passed a resolution condemning Vice President Kamala Harris for her management of the southern border, following a significant increase in illegal crossings.

The motion, introduced by Congresswoman Elise Stefanik, received support from all but six Democrats, highlighting immigration as a critical issue for voters ahead of the upcoming election.

Stefanik criticized Harris’s role as “border czar,” claiming her policies have led to a national security and humanitarian crisis.

“Today my resolution condemning Kamala Harris for her role as Joe Biden’s open border czar passed the House. Let me be clear: Harris and every elected Democrat owns this historic border crisis that has turned every community into a border community,” Congresswoman Elise Stefanik wrote.

“It is time that we return to President Donald Trump’s border security policies that put the safety of American citizens first. At our Northern Border in the Swanton Sector, I have seen firsthand with the Border Patrol the disastrous consequences of Kamala Harris’ failed Far Left open border agenda which caused a historic surge in illegal crossings like we have never seen at our Northern Border before including individuals on the terrorist watchlist. Kamala Harris didn’t just create a national security crisis, but a humanitarian crisis that has endangered the lives of millions. House Republicans will secure the border.”

Although the resolution is unlikely to be addressed by the Democratic-controlled Senate, it underscores ongoing Republican efforts to link Harris to the border situation, which remains a top concern for Americans.

“No matter what congressional district you go to, the number one issue facing Americans is Kamala Harris’ open border crisis,” Stefanik said.

“And by every metric, Kamala Harris has failed to secure our borders, instead advancing Far Left Democrats’ failed open border policies and the needs of illegal immigrants over the safety of Americans. Kamala Harris has failed in overseeing American safety by refusing to secure the border. She has proved that she is unfit to lead.”

Harris has distanced herself from the “border czar” title and faced scrutiny over her limited engagement with border issues.
