Harris says her 'values' remain the same despite multiple policy flip-flops
Vice President Kamala Harris assured the left-wing of the Democratic Party that her "values" on issues like energy independence and health care have not changed despite saying she no longer supports her past statements. Harris' interview with CNN's Dana Bash was her first interview after President Joe Biden dropped out of the race when it was clear he was unlikely to win this year's election. During the interview, Harris was accompanied by her running mate, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz. 'My value around what we need to do to secure our border. That value has not changed.'CNN aired a preview of the interview during the 4:00 p.m. hour. The full interview will air during the 9:00 p.m. hour."Generally speaking, how should voters look at some of the changes that you've made that you've explained some of here in your policy? ... Is it because you were running for president in a Democratic primary? And should they feel comfortable and confident that what you're saying now is going to be your policy moving forward?" Bash asked. “Dana, I think the most important and most significant aspect of my policy perspective and decisions is my values have not changed. You've mentioned the Green New Deal. I have always believed — and I've worked on it — that the climate crisis is real, that it is an urgent matter to which we should apply metrics that include holding ourselves to deadlines around time.
