Kamala Harris and Reparations Endorsement
Vice President Kamala Harris endorsed reparations for black people in a 2019 video. Despite her radical record, she appears to be walking back some of her positions. A New York Times report suggests she now supports fracking, wants to increase border funding, does not want to require selling assault weapons back to the government, and no longer supports a single-payer health insurance program.
