Harris: I Know the Importance of Safety and Security at the Border

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
Freedom to vote act. And let me be clear. And let me be clear. After decades in law enforcement, I know the importance of safety and security especially at our border. Last year, Joe and I brought together Democrats and Republicans to write the strongest border bill in decades. But Donald Trump believed a border deal would hurt his campaign. So he ordered his allies in Congress to kill the deal. Well, I refused to play politics with our security, and here is my pledge to you. As president, I will bring back the bipartisan border security bill that he killed, and I will sign it into law. I know – I know we can live up to our proud heritage as a nation of immigrants and reform our broken immigration system. We can create an earned pathway to citizenship and secure our border. [ applause ] And, America, we must also be steadfast in advancing our security and values abroad. As vice president, I have confronted threats to our security, negotiated with foreign leaders, strengthened our alliances, and engaged with our brave troops overseas. As commander-in-chief, I will ensure America always has the strongest, most lethal fighting force in the world. [ applause ] and I will fulfill our sacred obligation to care for our troops and their families. And I will always honor, and never disparage their service and their sacrifice. [ applause ]
