Kentucky's governor says Republican Donald Trump’s anti-immigrant language is dangerous and dehumanizing. Democratic Gov. Andy Beshear says the rhetoric makes it more difficult for Congress to reach a U.S. border security deal. Beshear's reelection last month in solidly Republican Kentucky raised his national profile. In a Tuesday interview with The Associated Press, Beshear said a balanced approach is needed on immigration. He says it should protect the nation’s borders while recognizing the role legal immigration plays in meeting employment needs. Asked what a winning message could be for Democrats in 2024, Beshear said the focus should be on improving lives.
