US Vice President and Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris has underscored her restrictive approach to immigration in a town hall with undecided Latino voters, a testament to her embrace of hawkish border policies as she comes under attack from the right on immigration.
Seeking to strike a balance between a tough approach and empathy towards immigrants, Harris chastised rival Donald Trump for telling Republican lawmakers not to back a bill supported by the administration of Democratic President Joe Biden that would roll back access to asylum and pour more resources into border militarisation.
