Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz pushed for illegal immigrants to get free health care, tuition and driver's licenses, driving up costs and burdening the state, critic says.
Kamala Harris' vice presidential pick pushed for his home state of Minnesota to become a sanctuary city for illegal immigrants and lavished them with benefits, one critic says. Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz told CBS in 2018 that he didn't want local law enforcement hassling illegal Minnesotans about their immigration status.
In backing the driver's license push for migrants, Walz argued last year that it would make the state's roads safer. 'Ensuring drivers in our state are licensed and carry insurance makes the roads safer for all Minnesotans,' he said after signing the legislation that made licenses available to all regardless of their immigration status. But Holster argued that acquiring a driver's license automatically confers the right to vote.
Holster attributed tax hikes in Minnesota to what he deemed Walz's misplaced largesse. 'I like to call it ‘managed decline wrapped in a blanket of benevolence,’' he said. 'It’s a destabilization of every aspect of life in Minnesota. He’s the chief administrator of a sanctuary state, and this all happened in coordination with the Minnesota legislature. This all happened under his watch.' Walz did not respond to requests for comment.
