Rejecting Kamala: Why 2024 Will Be the Year Minority Voters Take a Stand

For decades, Democrats have relied on minority voters to secure their wins, but 2024 is shaping up to be the election that changes for good. Black, Latino, and Asian American voters are waking up to Kamala Harris’s radical agenda. Her policies have pushed them further from the American Dream. As a political operative for nearly a decade and a former Republican National Committee staffer, I believe these voters will be the margin of victory in rejecting her failed leadership. Because I know conservative policies help our communities, I founded the American Tomorrow Project, and our mission is to educate and empower these communities to take a stand and demand real change. Vice President Kamala Harris has failed America, and if elected President, she will continue to do so—especially at the expense of minority families.

Take the economy, for example. As the tie-breaking vote in the Senate, Harris helped rubber-stamp massive spending bill after massive spending bill, fueling around 20% inflation and putting essentials like groceries and gas out of reach for working families. Imagine a young couple starting their careers and dreaming of a family. With surging inflation under Harris and her pushing grocery price caps, their food budget will stretch thinner each week, and store shelves will become emptier. Meanwhile, her push to ban fracking and American oil production has led to skyrocketing gas and utility prices, making it harder to cover anything beyond the bills. Homeownership—once a cornerstone of the American Dream—has become impossible for many Black, Hispanic, and Asian American families. After four years of co-authoring Biden's policies, Harris has caused a weak economy and high prices on everyday goods, making a downpayment on a house a distant dream.

Harris’s failures extend into education. Public schools—once a trusted path to success for parents—have been weakened by radical woke ideology pushed by Kamala Harris. My mother immigrated with me from the Philippines, and came to America to put me in a better school system. I myself graduated from public schools. But now, she would never consider putting me in a public school and would be forced to save for private education or consider homeschooling. Parents and families are forced to seek expensive alternatives while their children fall behind in a global race for success.

Harris’s reckless policies have also strained the healthcare system. Stories abound of families like a mother with a sick child, forced to wait hours at overcrowded clinics as illegal immigrants—prioritized by Harris’s policies—flood the system. Meanwhile, working-class families struggle to access timely care while in Harris’s home state of California, illegal immigrants are eligible for Medicaid. A healthy community is vital to prosperity, but under Harris, families are left to fend for themselves in a broken system.

Finally, Harris’s open-border policies insult every law-abiding citizen, including myself, who has gone through the arduous process of legal immigration. Consider someone who spent years navigating the immigration system to become a U.S. citizen, only to face unfair competition in the job market, losing opportunities to illegal immigrants willing to work for lower wages. At the DMV, they see illegal immigrants—enabled by Harris’s policies—receiving documentation ahead of them. Illegal immigration has also fueled dangerous crime in communities across the country, further undermining the safety of legal immigrants seeking a better life. Harris’s policies have undermined the integrity of the immigration system, rewarding lawlessness over hard work. We believe in legal and fair policies that reflect the values of opportunity and respect the laws that ensure a brighter future for all.

It’s time to reject Kamala Harris’s failed leadership and embrace a vision that truly prioritizes the needs of all Americans, especially the minority communities she has repeatedly failed. Her policies offer no real solutions—only fear-mongering and empty promises. Harris may present herself as a champion of freedom, but in reality, she exploits our communities with divisive rhetoric. It’s time for real change and a better tomorrow.
