In a CNN interview, Kamala Harris provides a vague "Day 1" Oval Office plan, stating that "a number of things" will be addressed.
Harris stated that she believes Americans are prepared to move on from Trump.
In her first media interview since becoming the Democratic ticket's vice president, Kamala Harris stated that she had several priorities in mind for her first day in office, but did not provide specifics.
She stated that she believes Americans are prepared to move on from former President Donald Trump.
What are the voters' plans for hearing your plans, Dana Bash asked Harris, who was accompanied by Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz in the White House?
Harris stated that one of his top priorities is to support and strengthen the middle class.
In 2020, Harris stated her stance on fracking, but a transcript reveals a different narrative.
Harris stated that when she looks at the aspirations, goals, and ambitions of the American people, she believes that they are ready for a new direction, one that has been fueled by hope and optimism for generations. However, she lamented that in the past decade, the former president has been pushing an agenda that has diminished the character and strength of the American people, dividing the nation. Harris believes that it is time for the nation to turn the page on this direction.
"What would you do on day one? Bash asked. Harris replied, "It's about implementing my plan for what I call an opportunity economy.""
Harris stated that he had previously presented several proposals, such as reducing the cost of everyday goods, investing in small businesses, and supporting families.
To aid families in purchasing a car seat, baby clothes, and a crib for their newborn child, she suggested extending the child tax credit to $6,000 for the first year of their life.
The Trump campaign first announced the extension of the child tax credit, although it has some differences.
Harris stated that the work they will focus on is investing in affordable housing for the American family, which is a pressing issue in the country. On day one, they will address a number of things related to this topic.
In the 26-minute interview, Harris revealed that one of her proposals involved a $25,000 tax credit for first-time home buyers.
To reduce the cost of housing, my proposal suggests a tax credit of $25,000 for first-time home buyers, enabling them to make a down payment and achieve their aspiration of owning a home, which is a crucial part of the American dream. However, it should be structured in a way that helps them attain this goal and dream.
Walz expressed his excitement about Harris' agenda.
The vice president's proposal shares many values with the idea of inspiring America to its full potential, as I previously stated.
