Democrats warned to deny backing 'amnesty' ahead of midterms: report

Democrats are reportedly being warned to deny that they favor "open borders" and "amnesty" on the thorny subject of immigration and the ongoing crisis at the southern border, as they gear up for what could be a difficult midterm fight for many candidates.

Included in the documents Politico viewed were moves to rebut GOP talking points. The strategy reportedly included this tip: Democratic should deny support for "open borders or amnesty" and instead talk about their efforts to keep the border safe.
