Harris told NPR.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Harris, who was tapped by President Biden to address the root causes of the border crisis and effectively became the &#8220;border czar&#8221; in 2021, told NPR that the White House plans to increase technology and provide more agents to help at the southern border.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think that there is so much that needs to happen to address the issue,&#8221; she told the outlet before adding, &#8220;Reform of our immigration system can only happen through Congress in terms of the passage of an immigration bill that allows for a legal pathway to citizenship and a legal presence in the country.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"image-ct inline\">\n<div class=\"m\"><source media=\"(max-width: 767px)\" \/><source media=\"(min-width: 767px) and (max-width: 1023px)\" \/><source media=\"(min-width: 1024px) and (max-width: 1279px)\" \/><source media=\"(min-width: 1280px)\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/640\/320\/GettyImages-1243584269-e1665178416650.jpg?ve=1&#038;tl=1\" alt=\"Vice President Kamala Harris hasn&#039;t visited the southern border since June 2021 despite leading the effort to address the migrant surge.\"   style=\"display:none\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"caption\">\n<p>\n      Vice President Kamala Harris hasn&#8217;t visited the southern border since June 2021 despite leading the effort to address the migrant surge.<br \/>\n      <span class=\"copyright\">(SeongJoon Cho\/Bloomberg via Getty Images)<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/border-images-impossible-biden-admin-ignore-when-title-42-ends-cnn-reporter\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>BORDER IMAGES WILL BE \u2018IMPOSSIBLE\u2019 FOR BIDEN ADMIN TO \u2018IGNORE\u2019 WHEN TITLE 42 ENDS: CNN REPORTER<\/strong><\/a><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Harris told NBC&#8217;s &#8220;Meet the Press&#8221;

she told NBC&#8217;s Chuck Todd.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Todd asked if she was confident that the border is secure as millions of people were set to cross into the country illegally for the first time ever.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We have a secure border in that that is a priority for any nation, including ours and our administration,&#8221; Harris replied. &#8220;But there are still a lot of problems that we are trying to fix given the deterioration that happened over the last four years. We also have to put into place a law and a plan for a pathway for citizenship for the millions of people who are here and are prepared to do what is legally required to gain citizenship.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div class=\"image-ct inline\">\n<div class=\"m\"><source media=\"(max-width: 767px)\" \/><source media=\"(min-width: 767px) and (max-width: 1023px)\" \/><source media=\"(min-width: 1024px) and (max-width: 1279px)\" \/><source media=\"(min-width: 1280px)\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/640\/320\/Joe-Biden-Press-Conference.jpg?ve=1&#038;tl=1\" alt=\"President Biden speaks during a news conference on the final day of the NATO summit in Madrid, June 30, 2022.
