Kamala Harris Legislation 'Would Crush Taxpayers'

“Two outrageous bills Kamala Harris sponsored would crush taxpayers,” notes the American Enterprise Institute. “As a U.S. senator, Vice President Kamala Harris had a remarkably slim record of accomplishments.” But she tried to pass legislation that would have increased the national debt by tens of trillions of dollars: “two bills she introduced (that went nowhere) may best define her past, and potential future, priorities as a lawmaker. Those bills would have turned the federal government into an unprecedented ATM machine, spitting out trillions of dollars” in new federal spending annually.

Inflation would have been at least an order of magnitude worse had Congress passed this at the time.
