BREAKING: Kamala Harris has just unveiled an aggressive economic policy agenda. Details: - $25,000 Subsidy for First-Time Homebuyers: A federal subsidy of $25,000 for more than 1 million first-time homebuyers to assist with down payments. - $6,000 Child Tax Credit: A $6,000 Child Tax Credit for the first year of a baby’s life, in addition to restoring the Biden administration’s Child Tax Credit that expired in 2021, which provided $3,000 per child (up from $2,000). - Elimination of Medical Debt: Proposing to cancel medical debt for millions of Americans by using federal funds to buy and forgive outstanding medical debt from healthcare providers. - Ban on Price Gouging for Groceries and Food: Introducing the "first-ever" ban on price gouging for groceries and food, including authorizing the Federal Trade Commission to impose fines on grocery stores that engage in excessive price hikes. - Cap on Prescription Drug Costs: Expanding on provisions from the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act, Harris proposes capping out-of-pocket spending on prescription drugs at $2,000 annually for all Americans, extending beyond just Medicare beneficiaries. - Earned Income Tax Credit Expansion: Expanding the Earned Income Tax Credit for lower-wage workers by up to $1,500. - Affordable Care Act Subsidies: Extending subsidies for Americans on the Affordable Care Act (ACA) exchanges. - Targeting Pharmaceutical Companies: Harris plans to target pharmaceutical companies that block competition and engage in abusive practices, supporting ongoing efforts by the Federal Trade Commission. I’m sure Trump supporters will claim that this will put us more into debt. Not if she rolls back the $2 Trillion in corporate tax cuts that Trump put in place. This simply puts average Americans ahead of corporations.

Researchers estimate that if we still had a federal assault weapons ban, we would see 70% fewer mass shooting deaths. S-E-V-E-N-T-Y PERCENT. Reinstating it should be a no-brainer.

Congress is about to give a $52 billion subsidy to companies that make semiconductor chips. Meanwhile, Intel – the world's biggest chip maker – had $79B in revenue last year. And their CEO's pay ($179M) was 1,711x an average employee. This is the height of corporate welfare.

If you are okay with having Muslim, Jewish and Hindu students sit through a Christian prayer in public school, and not okay with having Christian students sit through a Muslim, Jewish or Hindu prayer, then it’s NOT religious freedom- it’s religious oppression.

I’m old enough to remember when Dems had a filibuster proof majority in the Senate and had the House and the White House and didn’t protect Roe or pass gun reform. Voting alone isn’t enough- we need better Democrats.
