The union repping US Border agents ripped Vice President Kamala Harris
Friday, claiming the presidential hopeful �ignored the border problem she created.�
The fiery series of tweets came in response to a speech Harris made while visiting an Arizona border town earlier in the day, in which she vowed to
crack down on the historic stream of illegal immigration.
�Vice President Harris has ignored the border problem she created for over three years. She goes down there for 20 minutes for a photo op and decides
to repeat some of the things the NPBC has said before. But again, where
has she been the last 3 1/2 years?� the National Border Patrol Council
(NBPC) seethed.
�VP Harris asserted in Arizona that CBP needed more resources. We have apprehended over 8 million illegal immigrants over the last 4 years and
now you realize we need more help 38 days before the election.�
The tweets � each of which garnered nearly 2 million views � were shortly followed by a brutal �fact check.�
During her visit to the city of Douglas, Harris said she was instrumental
in raising the rate of overtime pay for border agents, funding that Biden signed into law in December as part of the 2024 National Defense
Authorization Act.
NBPC, however, claimed Harris, 59, played no part in pushing the
legislation forward.
�Today, VP Harris claimed that she played a role in increasing Border
Patrol Agent overtime pay. This couldn�t be further from the truth. As
with all things border related she was no where to be found when we needed her,� the union griped.
The union wasn�t the only critic of Harris� trip to Arizona Friday � the
border �czar� caught flak for apparently wearing a $62,000 Tiffany�s
necklace to visit the deteriorating border.
Harris went to the town of about 17,000 people and spoke about plans to
fix �our broken immigration system� in a bid to make up ground on one of
her most vulnerable political fronts as she�s locked in a neck-and-neck
battle for the White House with Republican nominee Donald Trump, 78.
It was her first trip to the southern border since a 2021 visit to El
Paso, Texas � and comes shortly after news broke of federal data released
the same day showing more than 15,000 illegal immigrants currently living
in the US are convicted or accused of homicide.
Harris has a slim chances of winning an endorsement from the NBPC.
The union picked Trump as its candidate in 2020 and tweeted earlier this summer, before Harris became the Democratic nominee that it �never will
endorse Biden.�
