Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance criticised the migration policies of the 'Harris administration', claiming they cause 'real human beings to suffer' during a visit to the US-Mexico border in Cochise County, Arizona on Thursday.
"It is hard to believe until you see with your own eyes just how bad the policies of the Kamala Harris' administration have been when it comes to the southern border," Vance said.
"Kamala Harris came into office, making promises, and she kept those promises to open the American southern border. They stopped deportations on day one. They stopped the construction of the border wall on day one," he continued.
Later, the vice presidential nominee vowed that he and his running mate, Donald Trump, would uphold a 'very simple' promise to resurrect Republican-era border policies.
"This is not rocket science. It is not hard to secure the southern border; you just have to reimplement some common sense policies. You have got to reimplement 'remain in Mexico', you have got to stop catch and release, you have got to force the asylum seekers to stay in Mexico," he added.
Migration is expected to be a key area of contention between Democrats and Republican voters in November's presidential elections.
On Sunday, July 21, incumbent President Joe Biden quit the race and endorsed his VP Kamala Harris. It followed months of health concerns and media scrutiny over his cognitive abilities, which escalated following a much-criticised debate with Trump. The White House consistently denied he had health issues.
