Why did Biden put Harris in charge of the border crisis?

In March, the Border Patrol apprehended more than 171,000 migrants who had made illegal crossings into the United States, the highest monthly total since 2006 - and it included more than 18,800 children who arrived without their parents.

In any case, working on such long-term changes isn't going to stop the current surge in illegal border crossings.

Harris doesn't appear to be very knowledgeable about immigration law.

Harris doesn't want to enforce our country's immigration laws, so I wouldn't expect her to have much concern about securing the border to keep undocumented aliens out of the country.

In December 2020, Biden told reporters that he would establish a more "Humane policy" at the borders but that he would need "Probably the next six months" to rebuild a system to process migrants and secure funding for immigration judges.

He did it anyway, and the border crisis he feared is occurring.

He subsequently served as an immigration counsel for the Subcommittee on Immigration, Border Security and Claims for four years.
