Dolores Huerta: "Kamala Harris is the only presidential candidate fighting for a fair and just America for working people" [1]

['Undefined Undefined', 'Alex Gallardo Ap']

Date: 2024-09

Her plans would cut taxes for the middle class; reduce grocery costs and take on corporate price gouging; lower the costs of owning and renting a home; bring down the costs of prescription drugs; and relieve medical debt for millions of Americans. These bold actions will address some of the sharpest pain points Latino families are confronting and bolster their financial security given that Latinos own homes at significantly lower rates compared to white households; many Latino families have turned to food banks and food pantries; or cut back on meals to cope with the increased cost of living; Latino adults are 35 percent more likely to hold medical debt compared to white adults; and nearly 10 percent of Latino adults have reported not taking prescribed medication due to cost. This would all change with Vice President Harris as President.
