Early voting may have ended, but there’s still one final opportunity to make your voice heard! This November 5th, head to the polls on Election Day to cast your ballot on the North Carolina Constitutional Amendment referendum.

With the election fast approaching, Beyond Borders has analyzed the Democratic Party’s presidential candidate Kamala Harris’ stances on immigration. We emphasize the importance of keeping our audience informed during this crucial time. It’s essential to examine where all candidates stand on immigration and other key issues, as every vote shapes our collective future. Your vote is your voice, and understanding how each candidate’s policies will impact our diverse communities is vital.

Although this post focuses on the presidential race, we also encourage you to explore state and local elections, which directly influence policies affecting our communities. Staying informed at all levels of government allows us to build the future we want to see.

Additionally, it’s worth noting that when Kamala Harris is asked about immigration, she often redirects the conversation toward Trump rather than addressing the people directly impacted. Furthermore, she has yet to offer specific policy proposals for immigration, which is a critical issue to consider as we approach the election.
