Vice President Kamala Harris has revealed some troubling policies she plans to pursue or implement very early in her term if she defeats former President Donald Trump this week.
In July, shortly after President Joe Biden decided to abandon his reelection bid and endorse her, Harris said during an impromptu interview with reporters that she would seek to take executive action against so-called “assault weapons” should Congress refuse to do so.
“I think it’s a great idea,” she said of mandatory gun buy-back programs.
“But listen, I don’t think we lack for great ideas. As I’ve said many times, we’ve had great ideas for decades. The problem is that Congress has not had the courage to act. That is why, from the beginning, I have said my agenda is to [attempt] to get Congress to act, but if they don’t, within the first 100 days of my administration, I’m gonna take executive action. What we need is action,” she added.
And on Friday, Harris “confirmed her first potential executive order would be to eliminate college degree requirements for specific federal jobs if she is elected into office in November,” the Daily Caller reported.
Harris has encountered a great deal of criticism since becoming her party’s presidential nominee for changing her stance on several left-wing policies she previously supported before 2020. However, at an event held at an IBEW local union hall in Janesville, Wisconsin, Harris made her intentions clear, stating her goal to eliminate “unnecessary degree requirements for federal jobs.”
