In the ongoing debate over immigration policy, the approaches of former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris present contrasting visions that elicit fervent opinions from both sides of the political spectrum.

Trump's strict stance on border protections is focused on stringent measures aimed at curbing illegal immigration. He has show strong determination to complete the construction of the southern border wall. Trump's implementation of the Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP), commonly known as "Remain in Mexico," forced asylum seekers to wait in Mexico for their immigration hearings. While this policy was criticized for its supposed disregard for legal due process and human rights, supporters argue that it effectively deterred unauthorized border crossings and upheld national security interests.

Harris' approach can be viewed through the lense of exisiting Biden/Harris administration policies: targeted approach to immigration which aims to balance enforcement with compassion. Many policies have been implemented to allow for a direct path to citizenship for immigrants, in order to promote legal immigration and deter illegal crossings. She is against the southern border wall. Critics argue that continuing policies, such as the "carrot and stick" approach and regional processing centers, are inadequate in addressing the root causes of migration and may still result in violations of international refugee law.

The question for debate is, do you support Trump's strict stance on border protections, or Harris' target approach to immigration?
