Vice President Kamala Harris has voiced strong support for expanding the U.S. Border Patrol and improving immigration processes as part of her platform, aiming to address immigration issues with both security and efficiency.

Harris has stated that if elected President, she would push Congress to pass a bipartisan border security bill first introduced in February, which proposes adding 1,500 new Border Patrol agents and immigration personnel. The bill also includes measures to expand the number of immigration judges and asylum officers, which Harris believes would significantly improve processing times and reduce the backlog in the immigration system.

The current VP has also proposed expanding overseas offices where individuals can apply for asylum without needing to reach the U.S. border. This approach aims to offer more accessible and orderly pathways for asylum seekers, reducing the pressure on border facilities while ensuring that those in need have a safe and legal option to make their claims.
