Back in June, California Senator Alex Padilla was one of the most high-profile Democrats to speak against the Biden administration's immigration crackdown, claiming it would "fail to address the challenges at our border just as it did under the Trump administration." But it appears that he has changed his view somewhat now that Kamala Harris has officially taken over the Democratic nomination.
On Tuesday, during an Axios House event coinciding with the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, Padilla touted Harris' immigration plan as a "holistic, thoughtful approach", also making a point to praise second immigration-related executive order that paved the way for undocumented spouses of U.S. citizens to find their own citizenship.
