Steve Cortes, former senior spokesman and strategist for the 2016 and 2020 Trump campaigns and current head of the League of American Workers, is warning that Kamala Harris’ vow to pass the first federal ban on price gouging if she becomes president would lead to “scarcity, shortages, and black markets” for everyday goods in America.
Last week, during a campaign event in North Carolina, Harris said her plan to lower the prices of everyday goods if she were elected president would be to go after the “bad actor” businesses that are not “playing by the rules” by working to pass the first-ever federal ban on price gouging.
