Vice President Harris will travel Friday to Douglas, Ariz., to visit the U.S.-Mexico border.
The Harris campaign announced the trip to the border, across from Agua Prieta, Mexico, on Wednesday.
Former President Trump criticized Harris for the planned trip earlier this week, saying she was only visiting the border for “political reasons.” The former president has sought to keep the border a hot-button issue for voters ahead of November, consistently bashing Harris and the Biden administration for their border policies.
The Trump campaign’s first ad when Harris took over at the top of the Democratic ticket in July bashed her for her role in the administration addressing migration to the U.S. border. House Republicans also approved a resolution in July that condemned Harris as the administration’s “border czar” after she was tasked in 2021 with addressing the root causes of migration.
Meanwhile, Harris has touted her record on immigration policy, arguing in a recent ad that she’s tougher than Trump on the issue.
After her trip Friday to the border in Arizona, Harris will travel to San Francisco to participate in a political event there Saturday. She will then campaign in Los Angeles and Nevada on Sunday as part of her West Coast swing.
