NPR: Republican campaigns see immigration as a winning issue for midterms
The midterm election are upon us. Will Republicans maintain control of Congress? It appears that, despite the controversy over immigration enforcement by the Trump administration, Republican candidates appear to be doubling down on immigration as an issue.
NPR reports that Republicans are leaning into immigration enforcement as one of their top campaign issues this midterm cycle. "An NPR analysis of advertisement data from the firm AdImpact shows that when it comes to immigration, Republicans are spending more money and running more ads than Democrats are. The data set includes ads purchased from January through June, before immigration enforcement officers shot and killed people in Maine and Texas this month."
