Comer launches Harris immigration probe with request outside her portfolio

The House Oversight Committee initiated an investigation into Vice President Kamala Harris’s border-related initiatives, focusing on her role in addressing the root causes of migration from Latin America. Committee Chair James Comer (R-Ky.) has requested documents from U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) about Harris’s involvement, despite CBP’s limited role in the broader immigration strategy. This move highlights Republican efforts to use immigration issues as a focal point in upcoming elections, scrutinizing Harris’s efforts to invest in development in Central America as a means to manage migration flows to the U.S.
