Kamala Harris Reverses Position on Plastic Straw Ban
The Democratic nominee's latest policy shift comes amid broader efforts to appeal to centrist voters.
- Harris previously supported banning plastic straws during her 2020 presidential campaign.
- A campaign official confirmed she no longer backs the ban, citing a focus on broader climate initiatives.
- This change follows other reversals on issues like fracking, Medicare for All, and mandatory gun buybacks.
- Critics argue these shifts are attempts to reposition Harris as a centrist.
- Harris maintains that her core values remain unchanged despite policy adjustments.
