Vice President Kamala Harris said at a rally on Tuesday that the 2025 bill would, among other things, slash Social Security and Medicare, end the Medicare Act and reduce taxes on the wealthy.
Harris’s comments are misleading. The 2025 bill does not seek to reduce Social Security benefits or end the Affordable Care Act. A new poll shows former President Donald Trump leading Harris by just one point, narrowing the gap he held over President Joe Biden in previous elections, according to The New York Times. Other polls have found that all black respondents said either Harris or Robert F. According to Newsweek, Kennedy Jr.
At that protest, Harris made several accusations about Project 2025. Harris called on people to read the 900-page text of the 2025 bill. Then, at around 41:00, she said in a video from the Hill: “If you read it, you will see that Donald Trump is gone. Big corporations are enriching them by cutting Social Security and Medicare and keeping working families under control. They want to lift the custody order. And at that time, insurance companies were not authorized to cover people with preexisting conditions.”
But Harris’s comments about Project 2025 were misleading. Project 2025 created a document addressing various issues related to the project. The document states that it does not support “cuts to Social Security” or the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and states that it wants to “prevent violence.” ”According to Forbes, House Bill 2025 would not end the ACA but instead would eliminate Medicaid and reform Medicare. Harris’s claim about the past tense is unfounded because the past tense is not mentioned in the 2025 project document.
The Project 2025 document adds that the project is not about former President Donald Trump, contrary to Harris’ language suggesting that Trump wanted to do the whole project. CNN reported that Trump tried to distance himself from the project by saying he knew nothing about it.
wrote on True Social: “I disagree with some of the things they say and some of the things they say are funny and mean.” “Whatever they do, I wish them luck, but I have nothing to do with them.” The 2025 Docket X bill also claims to support a “1% corporate tax increase,” which is misleading and calls for lower taxes for all Americans. But it’s true that the 2025 bill would reduce taxes on capital gains and qualified earnings for high-income earners, and would increase the top rate from 20% to 15%, according to CNBC.
A Harris campaign official told CNN that they “made a conscious decision to include all of Trump’s policies on the 2025 agenda” because they believe they “resonate with voters.”
