Americans are struggling with the reality of the price of electricity jumping 32 percent under the leadership of President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris — a great irony, as Democrats this week celebrated their theme of “joy” at their convention while Americans are miserable paying their bills.
Due to the inflationary policies of Biden and Harris, Americans are paying more for electricity. From January 2021, when Biden and Harris first took office, to July 2024 — over three and a half years into their administration — electricity cost has jumped 32 percent, according to the not seasonally adjusted Consumer Price Index (CPI).
This economic reality comes as the Biden-Harris administration continues to embrace green energy policies, which if fully implemented, would worsen prices and cause millions of Americans to lose their jobs. Notably, when Harris ran for president in 2020, she expressed support of policies such as banning fracking, but she seems to be pivoting in fear of losing key states such as Pennsylvania.
Harris has failed to clarify her position, and her campaign is covering for her as well.
“Look, if voters are asking those things of the Vice President, I think she will answer those questions. But I think that the things that the Vice President and Gov. Walz (D) are hearing from voters across the country, they are addressing those concerns, and I think that we saw that in North Carolina with her economic speech, and I think we’re going to continue to see that and hear that as her policy positions develop and voters are asking those questions,” Harris-Walz campaign principal deputy campaign manager Quentin Fulks said when asked if Harris will every clarify her positions on matters including fracking and defunding the police.
It should be noted that Harris was actually one of the first to sign on to the Green New Deal agenda, which was actually nothing more than a far-left socialist wishlist, where the lawmakers hoped to also “counteract systemic injustices” and implement a complete “transformation” of the American economy.
