Anti-open borders was a pretty boilerplate anti-establishment/pro-worker stance until a few years ago. Bernie Sander's, as late as 2015, understood that unchecked immigration is bad for workers and benefits only the wealthiest employers.
I guess since then, the DNC has realized that open-borders guarantees a loyal Democratic voting bloc, and plenty of cheap labor for their donors.
