Lying all the time - In a 2019 ACLU questionnaire, Harris supported taxpayer-funded gender transition surgeries for federal prisoners and detained immigrants, along with the decriminalization of federal drug possession. Harris also advocated for a drastic reduction in ICE funding and the end of immigration detention facilities. The questionnaire, reposted by the ACLU after Harris became the presumptive Democratic nominee, highlights her progressive stances that contrast with her current centrist claims.- In the questionnaire, Harris expressed her commitment to decriminalizing federal drug possession and reducing ICE's capacity to detain immigrants, pledging to "end" immigration detention and slash funding for the agency. "Our immigrant detention system is out of control," she wrote, advocating for an end to what she termed "the unfair incarceration of thousands of individuals, families, and children." She cited her previous opposition to increased ICE funding under the Trump administration and referenced her introduction of the Detention Oversight, Not Expansion (DONE) Act in 2018, aimed at halting new facility expansions. Notably, Harris also supported providing taxpayer-funded gender transition surgeries to individuals in immigration detention and federal prisons. When asked if she would use executive authority to ensure access to comprehensive medical treatment, including gender transition surgeries, Harris responded affirmatively, stating that "transition treatment is a medical necessity." - https://mxmnews.com/article/3900410d-acd6-4334-aaa4-ced0b480c5b8
