Kamala Harris argues the White House is taking human smuggling across the
southern border 'seriously'

Vice President Kamala Harris on Tuesday chided Texas Republican Gov. Greg
Abbott’s response to the news that at least 51 migrants had died after
being left in an abandoned big rig in San Antonio, Texas this week.

"How the governor of that state responded really highlights part of the
problem because his response when there are 50 dead bodies in his state is
to go straight to politics," Harris said in an interview with NPR.
"Instead of dealing with the realities of the issue."

Officials are still investigating what appears to be one of the deadliest
human smuggling cases in modern U.S. history. Republicans were quick to
blame the horrific incident on the Biden administration’s immigration
policies.

BIDEN SLAMS 'POLITICAL GRANDSTANDING' AS CRITICS BLAME IMMIGRATION
POLICIES FOR MIGRANT DEATHS IN TEXAS

"These deaths are on Biden," tweeted Abbott Monday night. "They are a
result of his deadly open border policies. They show the deadly
consequences of his refusal to enforce the law."

President Biden shot back at the governor and accused him of "political
grandstanding" after several Republicans slammed the administration’s
border policies.

Republicans blame the surge of migrants at the southern border this year
and Monday’s deadly incident on what they argue are "open border policies"
after the White House reversed Trump-era immigration regulations.

Harris argued the administration is taking "seriously" the issue of human
smuggling which has increased in recent years as smugglers look to turn a
profit on one of the most contested issues in the U.S.

"There have been over 2,000 arrests just in the last three months. I think
there are at least eight indictments that have happened," she said. "We
need to deal with that, right, in terms of the consequences of criminal
behavior that results in death."

But while Republicans blame the White House for the nation’s immigration
woes, Harris said the blame sat on the shoulders of the Trump
administration.

"We also need to take seriously the fact that we have a broken immigration
system that was decimated by the last administration," she continued. "And
we've been trying, and we are on the path doing it, to fix that broken
system."

Harris was deemed the "border czar" by Biden upon entering office.

But according to reports earlier this year, the second in command was
frustrated with being handed this title and argued her assignment related
to addressing issues in the Northern Triangle countries of Guatemala,
Honduras and El Salvador, which have led to the influx of migrants, and
not necessarily U.S. immigration policies.

Harris continues to face steep criticism from Republicans over her role as
border czar.

The victims in Monday’s tragic events included at least 22 migrants from
Mexico, seven from Guatemala and two from Honduras.
