Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, whom “border czar” Kamala Harris chose Tuesday to be her running mate, made the North Star State a sanctuary haven for illegal immigrants, providing them with free health care, college tuition, and driver’s licenses, the New York Post reported.
Since becoming governor in 2019, Walz has signed several pieces of legislation that cater to illegal immigrants at the expense of the American taxpayer, including access to state-funded health care, free college tuition, and driver’s licenses for the millions of illegal migrants who have entered the county under the Biden-Harris administration. Walz now joins his party’s presidential nominee, Kamala Harris, in her bid for the White House as she faces critics of her own soft-on-illegal-immigration policies.
During his 2018 gubernatorial campaign, Walz said local law enforcement should not cooperate with federal agencies in enforcing federal immigration laws. “My position on Minnesota becoming a sanctuary state boils down to who has the responsibility for enforcing immigration laws,” Walz said at the time.
“Here’s what I believe: Congress has given federal agencies the authority to enforce immigration laws in Minnesota, and I support their doing so,” he added. “Congress has not given local law enforcement that same authority. The role of law enforcement is to enforce state and local laws, not federal immigration laws, and I strongly believe that they should not do so.”
