Washington, D.C. – This week, MAGA House Republicans are amping up their baseless political attacks against Vice President Harris. House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer announced an investigation into Harris related to immigration at the southern border and demanded related documents from the U.S. Customs and Border Protection – mirroring the Trump campaign’s baseless attacks. 

In response, Congressional Integrity Project executive director Kyle Herrig said the following:

“After James Comer’s epic failure of an investigation into President Biden, he and his MAGA House Republican cronies continue to ignore the important priorities of Americans across the country and are shifting their baseless political stunts to target Vice President Harris. It’s far past time for MAGA House Republicans to move on from these evidence-free attacks and stop following orders from convicted felon Donald Trump. In reality, Vice President Harris and the Biden-Harris administration who have proposed historic bipartisan legislation and have taken action to secure our border and ensure our immigration system lives up to our values.”
