House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) defended Vice President Harris on Sunday after her recently unveiled economic plan received some criticism.
Harris outlined a series of economic policy proposals during a campaign stop in North Carolina on Friday, where she called for a federal ban on corporate price-gouging. CNN’s Jake Tapper asked Jeffries on “State of the Union” whether he backed her plan to ban price-gouging.
“Kamala Harris has articulated a very important plan to make sure that we are lowering costs for everyday Americans, that we are ending price gouging throughout the country, and that, of course, we are growing the middle class and making sure that everyday Americans can get ahead. So, we, as House Democrats, look forward to working with Kamala Harris to drive costs down,” Jeffries said on CNN. |
