During a visit to the U.S.-Mexico border in Arizona, Senator JD Vance criticized Vice President Kamala Harris for her handling of illegal immigration.

Labeling Harris a failed 'border czar,' Vance accused her of failing to coordinate with U.S. agencies to address illegal crossings, despite Harris' role focusing on migration from Northern Central America.

Responding to these criticisms, Harris emphasized her support for a bipartisan Senate border security bill that was rejected by Republicans, following opposition from Donald Trump.

Vance, a Republican senator from Ohio, linked Harris' policies to the entry of fentanyl into the U.S. and increased stress on schools and hospitals, though evidence for these claims was lacking.
