Kamala Harris
US Vice President Kamala Harris has described the Republican presidential contenders as ‘extremists’, claiming that the participants in the party’s first primary debate laid out an agenda that would make the country less fair, free, and secure.
Following the two-hour-long Republican presidential primary debate in Milwaukee, Wisconsin on Wednesday, the US Vice President said, “No one on stage ‘won’ tonight’s debate. Instead, the American people heard how much they stand to lose from an extremist agenda”.
The Republican presidential debate featured two Indian Americans, former Governor of South Carolina Nikki Haley, 51, and entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, 38.
Kamala Harris further said, “One by one, each extremist Republican candidate laid out a vision for an America that is less fair, less free, and less safe. These candidates want to raise costs for working families in order to benefit special interests and the ultra-wealthy”.
“To gut Social Security and Medicare. To strip fundamental rights and basic freedoms from millions of people”, the 58-year-old Vice President continued.
“And to reverse the Bidenomics strategy that has helped create 13 million jobs, the strongest two years of small business creation in history, and record-low unemployment. These extremists focus on unnecessary debates meant to divide our nation in hopes that the American public will not notice they have no affirmative agenda”, she claimed.
Harris went on to say, “President Biden and I will continue to grow the economy from the bottom up and the middle out and build a nation in which all people can truly thrive”.
“We are laser-focused on finishing the job we’ve started: to create good jobs, lower costs, fix America’s roads and bridges, create a clean energy economy, protect a woman’s right to make decisions about her own body, keep our children safe from gun violence, and make sure all Americans can dream about their future with ambition and aspiration”, the US Vice President added.
