YouTube Description
as posted by the channelSen. JD Vance was “blaming migrants” for problems in the United States, Gov. Tim Walz said in a debate with the Ohio senator on Tuesday.
“This issue of continuing to bring this up.. of blaming migrants for everything on housing, we could talk a little bit about Wall Street speculators buying up housing and making them less affordable, but it becomes a blame,” Walz said.
Walz acknowledged that the immigration system was working too slowly but said a bill Harris supported would shorten the time from seven years to 90 days. He said Americans wanted in principle to receive immigrants but also wanted order.
“They simply want order to it. This bill does it. It's funded. It's supported by the people who do it, and it lets us keep our dignity about how we treat other people,” Walz said.
Vance and Walz are facing each other in their first, and possibly last, vice presidential debate, hosted by CBS in New York on Oct. 1.
Both are relatively unknown to the broader American public. Walz was a U.S. House member before becoming governor of Minnesota. Vance is in his first term as a senator from Ohio.
