Vice President Kamala Harris is heading to the U.S.-Mexico border on Friday, after Republicans have criticized her for months for not making the trek. President Joe Biden had put Harris in charge of dealing with the root causes of the migration crisis, which quickly turned her into the person to blame for the spike in migrants coming into the U.S. Politico reported Harris was making the trip, alongside Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. She'll beat former President Donald Trump to the region by five days.
