Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer said during an interview over the weekend that “the spirit” of giving free handouts to illegal aliens should absolutely be part of Democratic presidential nominee Vice President Kamala Harris’ agenda if she becomes president.
Whitmer made the remarks during a Sunday interview on NBC News’ “Meet The Press” while discussing some of the extreme things that Harris’ vice presidential running mate Tim Walz has provided to illegal aliens in the state of Minnesota where he serves as governor.
Left-wing host Kristen Welker noted that Walz has given illegal aliens driver’s licenses, the ability to qualify for free tuition at public universities, and the ability to enroll in the state’s free health care program.
“Would you like to see the Harris administration adopt those same policies, Governor?” she asked.

“Well, I could tell you, you know, Tim Walz is a pragmatic guy,” Whitmer responded. “He’s a Midwesterner just like me. And I think some of the wonderful things he’s done in Minnesota resonate with, you know, Americans in all states.”
She added that Walz’s policies were designed to attract illegal aliens because it makes the U.S. a “beacon that people come to.”

Welker again pressed Whitmer to answer if those policies should be part of the Harris administration.

“I think what we need to do is have a system – an immigration system that works, number one,” Whitmer said before admitting that the border under the Biden-Harris administration is currently not secure.
“We need to make sure that when people are in this country, that they have access to have some form of ID. That’s really important,” she continued. “And I think to the spirit of those things, I think, should be a part of any vision for the country.”
