Steve Cortes, president of the League of American Workers (LAW), said Wisconsin voters will not be "fooled" by Vice President Kamala Harris “flip-flopping on positions to get elected."

“Kamala Harris continues to reveal that she’s an untrustworthy phony, a San Francisco scam artist," Cortes said. "Even her closest Washington ally, Bernie Sanders, agrees. He admits she’s only flip-flopping on positions to get elected. Wisconsin voters won’t be fooled.”

On Meet the Press, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) stated that he still considers Harris a “progressive” and considered her recent policy position reversals on her past support for "Medicare for All" and fracking bans "pragmatic." Sanders continued to say that Harris is "doing what she thinks is right to win the election."

Sanders also said Harris has a path to victory by campaigning on other positions, like raising the minimum wage, raising taxes on the wealthy and increasing Social Security benefits.

In 2019, Harris’ last full year in the Senate, GovTrack named her the “most liberal” senator compared to her peers, notably being scored more liberal than the self-described democratic socialist Senator Sanders.

Kerri Talbot, executive director of the Immigration Hub, reportedly told Axios that she opposes Harris’ current stance on border policy. Talbot said that Harris’ current proposal was essentially a “Republican bill,” but noted that she still supported Harris as she expected Harris to revert to form after being elected.

"We all know and trust Harris to make the right decisions when she's in office. I don't think this bill will ever come up again, as is," Talbot told the outlet.

Other liberal immigration groups also said they oppose Harris' new immigration policies, though they still support her campaign, Axios reported.

A report from Axios notes that Harris also changed her position on a border wall after pledging to spend hundreds of millions of dollars on a wall if elected. Harris had previously opposed such a project under the Trump administration and called the idea of a wall "un-American."

According to Axios, Harris is now embracing a more "hawkish" immigration policy as Trump's campaign spends millions attacking her about the border.
