Kamala Harris's key positions raise questions about her political future
Vice-president **Kamala Harris** shows different views from Biden on major policy issues. Her stance on healthcare abortion rights and climate action hints at a more progressive approach than the current administration
Kamala Harris moved from Californiaʼs attorney general to vice-president showing her skill to adapt in different roles. Unlike Joe Bidenʼs clear centrist position she doesnt stick to one political side
Healthcare remains her strong point - specially abortion rights where shes become the Democrats main voice. Last spring she went to a Planned Parenthood clinic in Minnesota (first VP to do that) and started a nation-wide tour about reproductive freedoms; her Medicare plans also focus on home-care for elderly
Her money ideas seem more left-leaning than Bidenʼs: she wants to change Trumpʼs 2017 tax cuts raise corporate tax to 35% and help working families with tax credits. Her housing plan includes building 3-million new homes while promising to keep childcare costs down for middle-class families
Do not come. Do not come. The US will continue to enforce our laws and secure our borders
On foreign matters Harris takes different positions from the White House: she speaks more openly about Israel-Palestine issues calling Gaza situation “a human catastrophe“ while staying firm on Ukraine support - meeting with Zelensky six times
Her climate goals go further than current plans: she wants $10-trillion in climate spending and stricter environmental rules. On guns shes pushing for tougher laws but keeps it balanced - she owned a gun herself when working as prosecutor
For minority groups Harris made special plans: forgivable business loans for black entrepreneurs more apprenticeships and a goal to help 600000 Latino families buy their first homes each year
