Harris backed by major Latino voter group: ‘She understands immigrants’

Make the Road Action supports Kamala Harris in its first-ever general election presidential endorsement

The immigrant rights group Make the Road Action is backing Kamala Harris in its first-ever general election presidential endorsement.

The 15-year-old organisation dedicated to Latino voter engagement in key swing states including Nevada and Pennsylvania, had previously supported Bernie Sanders in the 2020 presidential primaries but has otherwise avoided endorsing any presidential candidates. The voter mobilization group's endorsement on Thursday, provided first to the Guardian, comes amid a rush of enthusiasm for Harris's nascent campaign.
