Original Note:
NNN, semantics. In US politics, 'czar' is an unofficial & colloquial title. Harris was appointed to lead efforts to stem migration across the U.S.-Mexico border in 2021 & referred to as the "border czar" by news sources & bi-partisan government documents alike. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/white-house/biden-taps-harris-lead-coordination-efforts-southern-border-n1261952 https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/house-resolution/1371/text https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/house-resolution/253/text https://www.axios.com/2021/04/15/immigration-biden-children-unaccompanied https://www.nationalreview.com/news/border-czar-kamala-harris-accuses-abbott-of-dereliction-of-duty-for-busing-migrants-out-of-texas/ https://www.cnbc.com/2021/07/29/vice-president-kamala-harris-unveils-strategy-to-address-illegal-immigration.html https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Czar_(political_term)
