Harris advocates a similar domestic platform to Biden on some issues,[18] supporting national abortion protections, LGBT+ rights, gun control, and legislation to address climate change.[19] She also supports federal cannabis legalization, strengthening voting rights, strengthening the Affordable Care Act, and federal funding of housing. Harris has departed from Biden on economic issues, proposing what has been described as a "populist" economic agenda, supporting a ban on grocery and food price gouging, capping prescription drug costs, and expanding the child tax credit.[20][21] On foreign policy, she supports continued military aid to Ukraine and Israel in their respective wars.[22] On immigration, Harris supports increasing the number of Border Patrol agents and reforming the immigration system.
A debate between Harris and Trump is scheduled for September10 on ABC,[23] and a vice-presidential debate is set for October1 on CBS.[24]
