Ben-Ami said Harris has consistently supported a two-state solution while being clear on Israel’s right to defend itself.
She has also been a powerful voice calling for greater protection of Palestinian civilians in the wake of October 7, speaking out about the humanitarian crisis, and pressing for an urgent ceasefire to free the hostages and end the devastation, Ben-Ami added.
Economic points are limited to plans gestures about taxes. Nothing about tackling corporate-induced inflation / shrinkflation.
Nothing about supporting workers’ rights and aiding labor organizations.
Nothing about building a stronger regulatory framework and tackling loophole use by corporations and ultrawealthy.
Nothing here on continuing to support US allies and build international partnerships.
I recognize none of these are exactly keystone domestic culture war issues, and also all more or less reflect where she stood on Biden’s major pushes. But I’m still disappointed these all go unmentioned.
Most people in the US don’t care about Gaza because they don’t really understand. The election should be about what she can do for me (us). I’m no fan of genocide, or providing weapons for it, but I’ll choose my own life over them. Hopefully she feels different than Biden.
