Kamala Harris Shares 'To-Do List' of Post-Election Priorities

2 months ago 9

With less than two weeks to go until the 2024 election, Kamala Harris shared a list of her key priorities for what she hopes to accomplish if elected into office.

The list was posted to her X (formerly Twitter) account, with a caption that reads: "Trump has an enemies list. I have a to-do list."

The screenshot, titled "Kamala Harris' to-do list" has 14 items she's currently campaigning on, including cutting taxes for more than 100 million Americans, strengthening Medicare, and protecting the Affordable Care Act.

Trump has repeatedly vowed to go after his perceived enemies if he's elected president. According to NPR, he's made over 100 threats to prosecute or punish people who oppose him.

Harris appeared to reference this at a rally in Atlanta, Georgia, on Thursday. Asking attendees to imagine what the Oval Office will look like in three months' time, she said, "It's either Donald Trump in there stewing over his enemies list, or me, working for you, checking off my to-do list. You have the power to make that decision."

The Trump Campaign has been emailed for comment outside of working hours.

The "to-do" list elaborating on this idea was posted around the same time as the rally, but the policies listed came as no surprise.

A $6,000 tax credit for families with young children for example is an initiative she discussed at length with with Alex Cooper when she appeared on the "Call Her Daddy" podcast.

Also listed was passing a bipartisan border security bill, which she discussed on 60 Minutes.

Another notable item on her list is legalizing marijuana use, a policy that has she first revealed on the "All The Smoke" podcast in September.

Harris also listed as a priority, "Pass the first ever federal ban on corporate price-gouging on food and groceries," a topic she's particularly focused in the wake of multiple devastating storms hitting the U.S.

In a White House press release following Hurricane Milton, Harris said: "Let us all be clear: Americans impacted by a crisis should never be ripped off. I have seen firsthand the devastating impact of price gouging during an emergency...As Senator, I worked to stop price gouging during the pandemic..."

Other policies listed include investing in "American manufacturing and clean energy," "restore reproductive freedom, and "promote common sense gun safety laws to protect Americans from gun violence."

With the election less than 2 weeks away, 5 percent of voters remain undecided, per a new CNBC poll. The poll also showed that Trump currently leads Harris nationally by 2 percentage points.
