Harris Bets on Bidens Economic Record—and a Reboot

Kamala Harris`s presidential campaign centers around two economic themes: promoting the Biden administration`s accomplishments and offering solutions to address voter concerns about the economy. Her strategy might be effective due to improving economic conditions, particularly decreasing inflation, coinciding with voters making decisions. While recent data suggests a potential "soft landing" for the economy with moderating inflation, consumer spending resilience, and a positive outlook from forecasters, Harris acknowledges lingering issues like high costs for housing, food, and healthcare. Her plan aims to address these concerns by focusing on housing affordability, medical debt relief, childcare support, and measures to lower grocery prices.
