AXIOS – Kamala refuses to answer whether she still wants to grant amnesty to illegal ‘Dreamers’

Axios is reporting that they asked the Kamala campaign if she still wants to grant amnesty to the illegal alien ‘Dreamers’ which she promised to do in 2019 if she won the White House.

But she refused to answer the question, sending her spox to give a non-answer to Axios.

Here’s more on the report:

Vice President Kamala Harris is backing away from her past promise to use presidential power to unilaterally give a path to citizenship to 2 million “Dreamers” — undocumented immigrants brought to the U.S. as children.

Why it matters: It’s part of a pattern in which Harris and her team have changed her positions or declined to say whether she still supports some of the progressive policies she ran on during her presidential campaign in 2019.

Harris pledged in 2019 to take four executive actions as president that would give 2 million Dreamers a path to citizenship and shield more than 6 million undocumented immigrants from deportation.

“Every day in the life of a Dreamer who fears deportation is a long day,” Harris said then. “Dreamers cannot afford to sit around and wait for Congress to get its act together. Their lives are on the line.”

Spokesperson Ian Sams said: “The vice president has fought for Dreamers throughout her career and is proud of the actions taken under her and President Biden to expand protections for them, including the executive action President Biden took this year, which she supported.”

Harris proposed putting Dreamers on a path to a green card by, among other things, granting work authorizations, using certain parole powers and waiving rules barring people from returning to the U.S. if they leave to apply for a green card in a U.S. consulate abroad.

In June, Biden used the same “parole in place” power to try to give people married to U.S. citizens a path to citizenship if they had been in the country for 10 years. It’s being challenged in court.

This is the very same Kamala who was chanting “DOWN, DOWN WITH DEPORTATION” in 2019 and whose values haven’t changed.

I’m glad they wrote this article, but until the garbage media actually tries to hold her accountable for ducking the media and refusing to tell the voters specifics on what she’ll actually do, nothing will change. She’ll keep hidin’ just like Joe Biden did in 2020.
