Vice President Kamala Harris on Wednesday refused to explain how she intends to pay for her pricey economic plan if Republicans in Congress block her proposed presidential agenda, one of several questions she dodged during her first one-on-one interview with a major news network since becoming the Democratic nominee.
“If you can’t raise corporate taxes, or if the GOP takes control of the Senate, where do you get the money to do that?
Do you still go for those plans and borrow?” MSNBC host Stephanie Ruhle asked Harris about her handout-heavy agenda.
It’s about paying their fair share.” When Ruhle asked Harris how she would ensure that businesses hit with corporate tax hikes don’t leave the US, the vice president claimed that CEOs are supportive of her plan to raise the corporate rate from 21% to 28%.
“Well, listen, I work with a lot of CEOs,” Harris said.
“We’re going to have to make sure that the biggest corporations and billionaires pay their fair share,” Harris continued.
“Well, but we’re going to have to raise corporate taxes,” the Democratic nominee responded, without explaining how she intends to do that without congressional support.
