FLIP-FLOP: Kamala voted against Trump's child tax credit in 2017, now says she wants to expand it

In 2017, then-Sen. Kamala Harris voted against the Donald Trump-backed tax cuts that included the doubling of the child tax credit. Now, she claims to be in favor of an expanded child tax credit with her economic policy that includes prices control proposals.

At the time, Harris called Trump's tax plan, including the expanded child tax credit, "shameful," saying that it did "not reflect the best of who we are as a country," per press release. When Harris was running for president in 2019, she wanted to "get rid of the whole thing," Bloomberg reported.

At a recent Detroit campaign event, Harris said that “on day one we’re going to repeal that tax bill that benefited the top 1 percent and corporations." However, repealing the 2017 tax plan would have affected nearly every taxpayer with increased tax rates as well as cutting the child tax credit in half—down to $1,000.

Harris has now changed her tune on the expansion of the child tax credit, wanting to increase the $2,000 credit up to $6,000 after the Trump camp wanted to expand the tax credit to $5,000.

GOP VP candidate JD Vance said on CBS's Face the Nation "I’d love to see a child tax credit that’s $5,000 per child." He said that if he and Trump were elected, they would have to work with Congress to get it passed, per CNBC.

A few days later, Harris unveiled her plan to raise the child tax credit to $6,000, just days after Vance supported the proposal. Apress release from the Trump-Vance campaign on Saturday read "Yesterday, Kamala Harris unveiled her communist economic agenda, including Soviet price controls. Kamala is apparently now in favor of expanding the child tax credit – but her record says otherwise."

It added, "Kamala has repeatedly vowed to REPEAL President Trump's middle-class tax cuts — including the doubling of the Child Tax Credit," and cited reporting showing that Harris has consistently done so.
