==========
Kamala Harris announced a new economic policy proposal on August 18, 2024, during a rally in North Carolina, focusing on reducing costs of groceries and housing; her plan includes tax cuts, a federal ban on price gouging, and down payment assistance for first-time homebuyers; critics, including Donald Trump, labeled her proposals as 'Maduro-esque price controls'; Democratic leaders like Gretchen Whitmer and Hakeem Jeffries defended Harris, emphasizing the need to protect consumers; Whitmer described Harris' efforts as aligned with her values, while Beshear explained the legal framework for addressing price gouging; Duckworth supported Harris' plan despite concerns about federal deficit; Trump's economic proposals include extending the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.
