Kamala Harris,Price Gouging,Economy

Vice President Kamala Harris appeared to contradict herself on Wednesday while discussing her economic plan. She vowed to crack down on companies that price gouge shoppers, but then admitted that 'very few' corporations engage in this practice.

Vice President Kamala Harris appeared to undercut her own economic plan on Wednesday, saying her administration would crack down on companies who price gouge shoppers before admitting 'very few' companies engage in price gouging. Harris delivered the remarks at the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute's 47th Annual Leadership Conference in Washington, D.C., providing few specific details about the policies she’s running on for president.

The Tax Foundation's analysis estimates that Harris' overall plan would increase taxes by $4.1 trillion from 2025-2034, while reducing long-term GDP by 2%, reducing wages by 1.2% and resulting in the loss of 786,000 jobs over that period. Fox News Digital's Breck Dumas contributed to this report.
