On Friday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Source,” Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY) wouldn’t say if he backs 2024 Democratic presidential candidate Vice President Kamala Harris’ “federal ban on price gouging on groceries” proposal because “The devil’s in the details.” And “where do you end this? What are the details like? How do you define price gouging? That will be something that we’ll have to work through.”
Host Kaitlan Collins asked, “On that economic plan, do you support a federal ban on price gouging on groceries?”
Collins then said, “We heard from…Jason Furman. He was a top economist for Obama who said he actually thinks there’s just no upside to a policy like that, only really downside for a ban on price gouging for groceries.”
Goldman responded, “Maybe. Look, I understand Jason’s perspective, because where do you end this? What are the details like? How do you define price gouging? That will be something that we’ll have to work through. But the flip side is Donald Trump’s tariffs, which, as Vice President Harris said, [are] a national sales tax and will increase grocery prices even more, will increase all sorts of costs for everyday Americans far, far more, while he benefits his buddies in the billionaire class.”
