Vice President Kamala Harris has begun to catch up to Donald Trump’s polling lead on the economy, especially in the weeks since their ABC News debate.

Vice President Kamala Harris plans to announce new proposals focused on boosting U.S. manufacturing in a speech at the Economic Club of Pittsburgh, according to a senior campaign official.

With 41 days until the November election, the Harris campaign sees the Pittsburgh address as an opportunity to erode Trump's edge on the economy, which it believes is slipping.Harris' address will outline a"pragmatic" economic philosophy rooted in capitalism, innovation and an understanding of government's limitations, rather than one"bound by ideology," the official said.

"Some corporations, and it's very few of them that do this, but they jack up prices to make it more difficult for desperate people to just get by," Harris said. The campaign official noted, however, that Harris will also make clear that she is"unafraid to hold bad actors accountable if she needs to."
