The Truths We Hold, by Kamala Harris: on Immigration

Jeff Sessions: Northern Triangle caravans: Separate children from parents

There are a few things more cruel, more inhumane, more fundamentally evil than ripping a child from her parent's arms.

The administration claimed that it wouldn't separate families seeking asylum if they arrived at an official port of entry, as opposed to other parts of the border. But that didn't hold true. Many documented cases of family separation at ports of entry

Kamala Harris: Border wall sends the message "KEEP OUT"

But there was a bigger reason to oppose the border wall. A useless wall on the southern border would be nothing more than a symbol, a monument standing in opposition to not just everything I value, but to the fundamental values upon which this country was built.

Emma Lazarus's words--"Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free"--speak true to our true character: a generous country that respects and embraces those who have made the difficult journey to our shores, often fleeing harm. How could I vote to build what would be little more than a monument, designed to send the cold, hard message "KEEP OUT"?

Their only wrong was that they had fled horrific violence.
