Vice President Kamala Harris previously led a group of Democratic senators in calling for a reduction in funding for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and to reject appropriations entirely for additional Border Patrol agents and border wall construction.
In 2018, then-Sen. Harris and her fellow Democratic members of the Senate Judiciary Committee led several other Democrats in a letter to Senate appropriators. “We urge the Committee additionally to reject President Trump’s proposal for funding to hire new Border Patrol personnel at this time,” they wrote.
Another signatory of the document pushing back on President Trump’s administration and its request for funding in fiscal year 2019 was vulnerable Democratic Sen. Tammy Baldwin of Wisconsin, who now faces a competitive challenge in her bid for re-election in November.
