Senator Barrasso Highlights Kamala Harris’ Extreme Record

 Senate Republican Conference Chairman John Barrasso (R-WY) highlighted this week the extreme record that Vice President Kamala Harris has amassed while serving as an elected official in the U.S. government.

Barrasso made the remarks during a press conference Tuesday afternoon as Harris moves to officially lock up the Democratic Party’s presidential nomination after President Joe Biden dropped out of the race.

“The Democrats have successfully benched their starting quarterback, Joe Biden, and have replaced him with someone equally incompetent – but much more liberal – to call the plays, as Vice President Kamala Harris has been leading the cheers for the party of high prices and open borders,” Barrasso began.

“As Vice President, she broke the tie 17 times on radical nominees, some who want to defund the police,” he continued. “She broke the tie to pass the reckless tax and spending bill, which brought us the highest inflation in 40 years. And as the border czar, she opened the floodgates, 10 million illegal immigrants invaded our country.”

Barrasso noted that a non-partisan ranking from a congressional tracking site ranked Harris as the most far-Left member of the U.S. Senate, even more left-wing than socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT).

Harris is “somebody that proposed eliminating private health insurance for Americans but yet she wants to pay for health care for illegal immigrants,” he noted. “In the Senate, she cosponsored the Green New Deal. And she proposed eliminating fracking, which would drive energy prices even higher. She helped raise money for bail for criminals in our jails. And at the same time, she’s made it easier for illegal immigrants to stay here when they are criminals. The damage that she has done is cumulative. Prices are up 20% since she came into office. 10 million illegal immigrants. That’s why three out of four Americans say the country is headed in the wrong direction.”

 

He said that a vote for Harris was a vote for “more inflation, higher prices, and an open border.”

“Republicans know what to do. It’s stop the wasteful Washington spending,” he concluded. “It’s secure the border. It’s unleash American energy. That’s the way to get America back on track.”
