Vice President Kamala Harris’ “blue wall” swing in Wisconsin and Michigan is set to focus on key economic issues such as entrepreneurship, manufacturing, and worker protection, as outlined by a campaign adviser.
Recent public polling indicates that Harris has made gains in terms of handling economic matters, providing her campaign with an opportunity to emphasize that a Harris administration would excel in this area compared to former President Donald Trump.
As part of her campaign efforts, Harris, along with billionaire Mark Cuban, will be visiting a business class at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee’s entrepreneurship center to engage with a group of young leaders. The center, known for hosting a “Shark Tank”-style competition for college students to secure funding for their business ideas, will serve as a platform for Harris to discuss her proposal to increase the small business tax deduction from $5,000 to $50,000.
Later in the day, Harris is scheduled to hold an evening rally in Green Bay, Wisconsin, where she is expected to highlight her strong support for unions. The event will feature an introduction from Jim Ridderbush, the vice president of the United Food & Commercial Workers Local 1473.
On the following day in Michigan, Harris will continue her focus on economic and manufacturing issues, with a specific emphasis on Lansing.
