US Election: Trump accuses Harris for 'copying' his tax policy
"The difference is, she won’t do it, she just wants it for Political Purposes!" Trump says
Republican candidate Donald Trump accused his rival and Democratic candidate Kamala Harris over stealing his policy in her address to the campaign rally at Las Vegas, Nevada on Saturday.
"Kamala Harris, whose 'Honeymoon' period is ENDING... just copied my NO TAXES ON TIPS Policy," Trump said on his Truth Social app.
"The difference is, she won’t do it, she just wants it for Political Purposes!"
This was in response to Harris’ effort to gain support over the service workers at the campaign rally.
"It is my promise to everyone here when I am president we will continue to fight for working families, including to raise the minimum wage and eliminate taxes on tips for service and hospitality workers," Harris said.
Earlier on Friday, the vice president made a successful impact in Arizona, along with her running mate Tim Walz.
Harris said she would work to drive down consumer prices, vowing to "take on big corporations that engage in illegal price-gouging" and corporate landlords that unfairly raise rents on working families, as well as going after big pharmaceutical companies to drive drug prices lower.
Additionally, a Harris campaign official said her proposal would require legislation to be passed by Congress.
"As president, she would work with Congress to craft a proposal that comes with an income limit and with strict requirements to prevent hedge fund managers and lawyers from structuring their compensation in ways to try to take advantage of the policy," the official said.
