How will immigration shape the US presidential election? | Inside Story

Today we are looking at the positions of the two US presidential nominees on immigration and whether it is a make-or-break topic on who will next sit in the White House.
The Democrat Kamala Harris says she wants to fix a broken system.
But Republican nominee Donald Trump says she is not up to the task, and his strong stance and plan to carry out mass deportations is what is best for America.
Is immigration policy a deciding factor for many Americans?
What is the difference between the two candidates' policies?

Guests
Arshad Hasan, Democratic Political Strategist and founder of Convey Communications.
Alexandra Miller, Interim CEO at Vecina - a nonprofit corporation that seeks to empower immigrant justice advocates.
Patrick Mara, chairman of the Washington Republican Party.

Many American companies rely on LEGAL immigrants who come to the US with the green card, not on illegal immigrants. That is the difference.

I dont like Trump as a person, but his policy on immigration is right. According to these clowns, the birder should be open all yhe time. Then what is the point of having a bidet in the first place?

*USA🇺🇲 still occupied Samoa, Puerto Rico, Guam, Mariana, Virgin, Baker, Howland, Jarvis, Johnston, Kingman, Midway, Wake, Navassa, Palmyra.*
end occupation & keep peace

In USA, US government call it 'illegal immigration matters'. In other countries, US government would call it 'Human Trafficking matter.' Why?

All Jews and Evangelicals should vote for Jill Stein because she is the only Jewish candidate running for President. That will stop antisemitism.

Where are the actual Americans that are red indians confide to the reservations areas isolated from the immigrants who are 99 percent came fron europe asia and latin america. I do not think what 20 million elliens president trumph is talking about whose own wife is from Poland while kamla Roots ate from india in Asia. The new america is brought to this power by these brilliant minds who came from abroad and they struggled alot to make this country as the most powerful country as American public is always behind the girls and bears these are the immigrants who strived hot to survive and served this great county make it america the most developed country. I assume if you minus these immigrants the America will be down down and down.

Adrian is a clown as an anchor. I can't tolerate him. Al Jazeera has a lot of talent he isn't one of them. Video stopped as soon as I heard his voice & thumbs downed.
