<p>The Harris Campaign told <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/harris-campaign-not-push-medicare-for-all-plan-despite-previous-support" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Fox News</a> on Tuesday that the Democratic presidential nominee will not push a Medicare-for-all plan despite campaigning on providing universal Medicare just five years ago.</p>
<p>A Harris campaign official told Fox News&#8217; Peter Doocy that the vice president, who campaigned on pushing Medicare-for-all in the 2020 Democratic primary, will not make the same promise on this campaign.</p>
<p>Harris told Doocy in 2019, &#8220;So, the bottom line and the most important is that everyone have access to health care. That is the goal. That is the purpose for me supporting the policy of ‘Medicare-for-all.'&#8221; On her 2020 presidential campaign website, Harris wrote, &#8220;&#8216;Medicare-for-all&#8217; will cover all medically necessary services, including emergency room visits, doctor visits, vision, dental, hearing aids, mental health, and substance-use disorder treatment, and comprehensive reproductive health care services. It will also allow the Secretary of Health and Human Services to negotiate for lower prescription drug prices.&#8221;</p>
<p>When Harris was still a senator representing California, she also <a href="https://www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/senate-bill/1129/cosponsors" target="_blank" rel="noopener">co-sponsored</a> Sen. Bernie Sanders&#8217; (I-VT) single-payer &#8220;Medicare for All Act of 2019,&#8221; arguing at the time, &#8220;It’s not just about what is morally and ethically right. It also makes sense from a fiscal standpoint.&#8221; Sanders&#8217;s single-payer plan would have made the government completely responsible for covering health care costs and <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2019/03/23/health/private-health-insurance-medicare-for-all-bernie-sanders.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">abolished</a> private insurance.</p>
<p>When CNN asked about private health insurance in January 2019, Harris <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2019/03/23/health/private-health-insurance-medicare-for-all-bernie-sanders.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a>, “Let’s eliminate all that. Let’s move on.”</p>
<p>Trump campaign Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt blasted Harris on Wednesday, <a href="https://x.com/kleavittnh/status/1823699993540133351" target="_blank" rel="noopener">writing</a>, &#8220;Kamala Harris’ spokespeople are once again alleging she has flip flopped on her positions — this time saying she no longer supports socialist Medicare for All. Kamala needs to stop insulting the intelligence of voters and speak for herself to explain why she is running from every liberal policy she has ever supported.&#8221;</p>
<p><b><a href="http://www.amiracist.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=http://www.amiracist.com/&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1723312978172000&amp;usg=AOvVaw1Kuw7_CFpxtIaxl4Gay5PU">WATCH THE TRAILER FOR ‘AM I RACIST?’ — A MATT WALSH COMEDY ON DEI</a></b></p>
<p>Harris&#8217;s Medicare flip-flop isn&#8217;t the only issue the vice president has been criticized for backtracking on after becoming the Democrats&#8217; nominee. While running for president in 2020, she said entering the U.S. without proper documentation should not be a criminal offense. The Harris campaign now says that her position is “the same as the administration’s — unauthorized border crossings are illegal,” POLITICO <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2024/08/09/harris-promises-to-go-tough-on-border-security-00173485#:~:text=Harris'%20remarks%20Friday%20were%20similar,on%20fentanyl%20and%20human%20trafficking." target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>.</p>
<p>Many of Harris&#8217;s policy positions have been impossible to nail down since she has not sat down for a major interview or held a press conference since becoming the nominee, and her campaign website has yet to publish a policy platform. The vice president said last week that she is hoping to get an interview on her schedule &#8220;before the end of the month.&#8221; Harris is set to debate Republican nominee Donald Trump for the first time on September 10 on ABC.</p>
