What is Central America Forward?

[berg80]

In response to immigration concerns, Harris’ call to action was the public-private partnership Central America Forward (CAF). The idea behind CAF is to support the creation of local jobs and other measures in order to slow the flow of mass migration.

CAF has generated more than $5.2 billion since its launch in 2021, and its partners include more than 50 companies and organizations that have committed to supporting economic growth in the Central America region. The entities represent the financial services, textiles, apparel, agriculture, technology, telecommunications, nonprofit sectors, and others, according to the White House.

Seeing as Harris's actual responsibility regarding the border was to try to make conditions better in those countries immigrants were fleeing, her goal was to improve economic opportunities there. To try to make it so migrants were not so desperate that they would travel thousands of miles by foot for a better life.

The part of the immigration equation often left out of the conversation is how deteriorating conditions in countries like Guatemala, El Salvador and Honduras have lead to increased numbers of migrants showing up at the border. Harris was asked to try to do something about it. She was not put in charge of the border. That persistent, pernicious lie has been thoroughly debunked..............yet it is still being spread because that is how Repubs and conservative media roll.

Of course, make their shithole a tiny bit better.
That only works if you also close and lock the door here.
A tiny bit better is still worse than the US.

Her border job was only 99% a failure.

The point of the thread is not to try to measure the success or failure of CAF. It is simply to point out the scope of what she was asked to work on did not include being "in charge of" the border.

So sending money to SA tinpot dictators in the hopes they might curtail the illegals on their own is a plan?

Obviously. You don't want to admit Harris is a failure.
She can't defend the border failure. She can't defend her failure.

Obviously you don't want to admit the "border Czar" label is a lie.

You would prefer the CIA's method?
You wanna know why we have people migrating here en masse?
Ask the right questions.

 

[MarcATL]

Interesting.

 

[berg80]

What I would say about CAF is under the circumstances, that being Harris given an impossible task, she did what she could.

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

Obviously you don't want to admit the "border Czar" label is a lie.

I'll admit, saying Harris did anything helpful to fix their border crisis is a lie.

Because Biden and Harris let them in and let them stay.

Funny how it only became a lie when Biden was forced to withdraw.

thanks, berg, i didn't know that.

comparing the accomplishments of this sharp and capable woman with some guy who plays himself on a reality show? priceless.

Not the right question/statement. Not even close. And not even remotely true.

Who dismantled the asylum process while he was President?....can't remember his name.

So your boy Biden and all of his media, lied?

With her very limited abilities.

So why was she given the title Border Czar and not Central and South American Economic Development Czar then?

Who gave her that title? You? Some talking head?

Not Biden
