Among the crowded field of 2020 Democrat presidential primary candidates, two of the field's most anti-establishment Democrats have bucked the open borders lobby.
Former Secretary of Housing and Urban Development and 2020 Democrat candidate Julian Castro has successfully pushed a number of presidential primary candidates into supporting not only more legal immigration to the U.S., but free taxpayer-funded healthcare for illegal aliens, and a border policy that decriminalizes all immigration.
Her platform now includes decriminalizing illegal border crossings, free healthcare for all 11 to 22 million illegal aliens, an increase in legal immigration levels to import more foreign competition for American workers, and a 700 percent increase in the total number of refugees arriving in the country.
Bucking the open borders wing lobby, which has had an increasingly significant influence on the Democrat Party since the mid-2000s, in small yet noteworthy ways are Rep. Tulsi Gabbard and businessman Andrew Yang.
Gabbard, despite supporting amnesty for the entire illegal population in the U.S., firmly said in the second Democrat debate her plan for tuition-free college would not be available to illegal aliens.
Even self-described "Moderate Democrat" voters, by a majority, said they are turned off by the Democrat Party's rapid shift towards an open borders platform.
The latest NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist Poll shows that a plurality of moderate Democrats oppose providing illegal aliens with free health care, and nearly six-in-ten moderate Democrats oppose decriminalizing illegal immigration as a number of 2020 Democrat candidates have proposed.
