FAKE NEWS: Mainstream media trying to help Kamala win by reporting that she’s taking a more hardline stance on immigration
08/29/2024 / By Laura Harris
Pro-migration activists are applauding mainstream media outlets for portraying the immigration policies of Vice President Kamala Harris as moderate despite her commitment to more progressive policies.
According to several reports, mainstream media outlets are showing that Harris is taking a more hardline stance on immigration compared to other Democrats in the past decades to maintain voter support, especially in swing states where immigration is a hot-button issue.
For instance, an NBC News headline on Aug. 18, read: “Progressives focus on pragmatic goals for a Harris presidency.” Meanwhile, the New York Times reported on Aug. 25 that “the overall message on immigration from the Democratic Party in the past week … has been decidedly more hardline than it has been in decades.” (Related: Kamala Harris to reduce illegal immigration by LEGALIZING it, not stopping it.)
These have earned praise among pro-migration activists, who admit that they now focus on securing an electoral win rather than their advocacy.
“I am 100 percent done with this loser, backbiting bulls— less than three months before the election. We have to win,” an anonymous progressive organizer told NBC News on Aug. 18. “We’re not in an advocacy moment now; we’re in a win-the-damn-election moment. We’ll shift into advocacy on Nov. 6, and if we’re successful in the next couple of months, we’ll have the opportunity then to push a Democratic president and Democratic Congress to enact good legislation.”
“The absolute worst thing that could happen for immigration would be a Trump win,” the progressive organizer added. “The second worst thing to happen would be winning the White House but losing the Senate.”
Pro-immigration advocates want radical immigration policies if Kamala Harris wins in November
Democrats have adjusted their rhetoric on immigration and pro-migration activists lauded it. However, these same open borders advocates are still expected to push for radical immigration policies that would expand the entry of migrants into the country significantly.
For instance, Domingo Garcia, head of the League of United Latin American Citizens PAC, stressed the need to depoliticize immigration to avoid becoming a controversial issue.
“We recognize that until we take immigration off the table — off from being used as a political piñata by Republicans — we will not be able to pass comprehensive immigration reform,” Garcia said. He suggested that, after the election, Democrats should immediately pass legislation for immigration reform and voting rights within the first 100 days to prevent these issues from dominating future political battles.
Carmen Feliciano, advocacy chief for UnidosUS, a pro-migration group formerly known as LaRaza, noted that there is little need for public advocacy because they expect Harris’ policies to align with those of pro-migration groups like theirs.
“We know, based on where she’s been in the past, that her policies are probably going to be aligned with UnidosUS’ policies,” she stated.
Angelica Salas, the director of the California-based pro-migration group the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights, echoed this sentiment. “This is not something I have to explain to Kamala Harris,” she said.
