Vice President Harris recently outlined proposals to cut taxes for most Americans, ban grocery store "price gouging" and build more affordable housing as part of the "opportunity economy" she plans to promote if she wins the White House election.
In her first major economic speech as the Democratic presidential nominee, Harris promised a new child tax credit of up to $6,000 for families with young children, tax cuts for families with children and lower prescription drug costs.
Harris also called for 3 million new homes over four years and tax incentives for home builders who build homes for first-time buyers.
Harris told supporters at a rally in North Carolina that the U.S. economy is strong, but prices are still too high. She said that if elected president, she would focus on the middle class. "I firmly believe that when the middle class is strong, America is strong," she said. (Jin Shi)
