Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and Ohio Sen. JD Vance took the stage Tuesday night for the first Vice Presidential debate of the season, and likely the last time the Republican and Democratic campaign will meet before November. In a more civil encounter compared to September's presidential debate, the two candidates went through a long list of issues affecting the American voters, including immigration.
From the economy to reproductive rights, Vance and Walz sparred on their highly distinctive ideologies, and that of their running mates. But while the conversation generally stayed courteous— with the two candidates even agreeing on some basic principles such as the critical state of the environment— the debate started getting heated when one of the most contentious issues of the election season came up— immigration.
