Kamala Harris: The Economic Champion Latino Families Need

Latino voters will play a pivotal role in the upcoming election, and the stakes are high. When it comes to economic policies that truly benefit Latino families, Kamala Harris stands out as the clear and only choice. While Donald Trump promised growth, his administration’s policies favored the wealthy, leaving working-class Latino families behind. In contrast, Harris has focused on building an economy that supports everyone—especially the Latino community. The U.S. economy is strengthened by its diversity.

Better Jobs and Wage Growth for Latino Workers: Under Trump, the economy was an illusion because the economy was reinvigorated for eight years by the Democratic Party led by Barak Obama. Whatever growth that occurred was because of Obama and not Trump. Harris has prioritized raising wages and expanding labor rights, particularly in industries where Latinos are overrepresented.

Supporting Latino-Owned Small Businesses: Latino entrepreneurs are the fastest-growing group of business owners in the U.S. Trump has a chronic history of not supporting small businesses and personally not paying them. Harris has made Latino small business growth a priority by expanding access to capital, federal contracts, and providing low-interest loans to ensure their long-term success.

Affordable Healthcare for Latino Families: Affordable healthcare is crucial for Latino families, who have historically faced higher uninsured rates. Trump’s efforts to dismantle the Affordable Care Act (ACA) also known as Obamacare would have left millions of Latinos without coverage. Harris plans to expand the ACA, making healthcare more accessible and affordable.

Education and Economic Mobility: Education is a top priority for Latino families, but under Trump, student loan debt skyrocketed, and public-school funding stagnated. The Democratic Party under the Biden/Harris’s administration has increased funding for public schools, expanded scholarships, and supported student loan forgiveness for low- and middle-income borrowers, providing economic mobility for Latino youth.

Emergency Economic Commitment to Latino Communities: The heart of the economy for Latino families is the home and the community. Trump’s attack on the immigrant community threatens the safety and security of all Latino families. His vindictiveness is evident by threatening deportation for “those people.”  His withholding and delaying of FEMA and HUD funds to Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria left thousands homeless and without electrical power. The disparity between Puerto Rico and assistance given to Texas and Florida was sadly unfair. How efficiently communities get aid to recover has an impact on health and local economies. The Latino community needs someone to trust in time of need. Biden/Harris have proven to respond quickly to emergencies without racial favoritism.

Taxes and the Economy:  The Trump plan is to reduce taxes for the wealthy and cut Social Security benefits. The quality of life for Latino seniors will decrease along with their ability to buy goods and services. Kamala Harris plans to make sure that there will be no tax increase for those making less than $400,000; that means a tax increase only for those making more than a half a million dollars a year.

Project 2025: In and of itself, this Trump plan guarantees only one thing: Specifically, that the government that has decades of proactive social programs to improve the economy and our way of life will be removed without effective recourse to stop radical change. This plan would decimate so many administrative departments or eliminate them that it would ruin the economy by virtue of the chaos. It  t would take years for the new government to stabilize – if ever. Economically this is a main reason that so many high level and respected Republicans are speaking against Trump.

Kamala Harris’s economic policies are designed to uplift families, offering better wages, support for small businesses, affordable healthcare, and educational opportunities for Latino Families and all Americans. Unlike Trump’s approach to support the wealthy and powerful, Harris’ vision ensures that Latino workers, entrepreneurs, and families can thrive in a fair and just way.
