Ahead of a recent event in Atlanta, a massive screen displayed a controversial message criticizing Vice President Kamala Harris's border plan. The message, 'Make America Haiti,' raised concerns about illegal immigration and crime, particularly in relation to Haitian migrants.
Another ad at the venue depicted gang members with menacing expressions, insinuating that they could become 'apartment managers' if Harris is reelected. These ads reflect the escalating rhetoric from former President Donald Trump regarding Harris's approach to immigration and crime.
Trump has specifically targeted Haitian migrants, vowing to revoke Temporary Protected Status for them, particularly in Ohio. He has expressed concerns about the impact of migrant gangs on cities like Aurora, Colorado, warning of potential destruction.
Many Haitians have entered the US through programs established by the Biden-Harris administration, such as the parole program and Temporary Protected Status. These initiatives allow vetted individuals with US sponsors to enter the country and protect them from deportation for a limited period.
The debate surrounding immigration policies, especially concerning Haitian migrants, continues to be a contentious issue in American politics. Critics argue that stricter measures are needed to address potential security threats, while advocates emphasize the importance of providing support and protection to vulnerable populations.
