Wes Moore says he would work with Stephen Miller on immigration
Maryland Gov.
Wes Moore says he is willing to work with Stephen Miller on immigration, even though he strongly distrusts Miller’s record.
Miller is the new White House chief of staff under President Donald Trump and is known for taking a hard line on immigration.
Moore said there may be a chance to reach constructive agreements, including on immigration and AI safety.
He said Miller’s policies have caused deep distrust, and criticized them as racist, xenophobic and homophobic.
Moore wants negotiations to produce practical benefits for people in his state, including measures that could ease the targeting of unauthorized immigrants.
The comments come after Republicans lost ground in the midterm elections and Trump said he wanted to work with Democrats on immigration.
Moore is also seen as a possible Democratic presidential candidate in 2028, though he has denied interest and has little support in recent polling.

What people are saying
I will work with anybody, I will bow to nobody
I wish that there was a different team, because I think the well of distrust that Stephen Miller and his policies have fostered have been deeply poisonous
It is not lost on me at all that Stephen Miller is the architect of some of the most racist, xenophobic, homophobic policies that we have in the United States of America and I think we need to be honest about that
