The House of Representatives has voted to condemn Vice President Kamala Harris for her handling of the U.S. southern border, marking the first legislation targeting Harris since she became the Democrats’ presumptive 2024 nominee. The bipartisan vote saw six Democrats joining all House Republicans in passing the measure, which passed 220-196.
For years, Republicans have criticized Harris for her role as “border czar” and failing to address illegal immigration effectively. This condemnation is seen as a significant blow to Harris as she prepares for a potential head-to-head race with former President Trump in the upcoming election.
The vote highlights the growing scrutiny and challenges Harris faces within her own party, with moderate Democrats joining Republicans in rebuking the vice president’s handling of the border crisis. Despite this, Harris continues to receive endorsements from left-wing lawmakers as she navigates the campaign trail.
