On immigration, Harris has again been saddled with blame for Biden’s slow response to the flood of migrants across the US-Mexico border that created significant costs for Massachusetts, New York City, and many other locales. But she has been right to call for a more humane legislative solution that would both strengthen border security and create a pathway to citizenship for migrants. Trump’s policy is purely punitive: He says he would use the military to deport millions of migrants, whether or not they are employed and contributing to their communities. Thousands of American businesses — farms, food services, and construction firms in particular — could face major worker shortages if he does what he pledges to do.
