Vice President Kamala Harris likes to portray herself as tough on the border and immigration.

Recent TV ads highlight her support for “the toughest border security bill in decades ” That bill, which failed in the Senate in February and again in May , included $650 million for new border wall construction.

In her 2019 book, “ The Truths We Hold ,” Harris called the wall “useless” and a “medieval vanity project.

Harris was a consistent critic of the border wall during the Trump administration.

She was one of 34 senators to sign a congressional letter criticizing the use of Title 42 authority to bar migrants from entering the country.

As vice president, she was tasked with overseeing diplomatic efforts to address the root causes of migration.

Her current stance on asylum marks a notable departure from her earlier promises to uphold the asylum process.
