As the 2024 presidential race nears its final stretch, voters are left with growing uncertainty about what a Kamala Harris presidency would mean for their finances, particularly concerning their rising energy bills. Under the Biden-Harris administration, energy costs have soared, adding more weight to the already pressing economic concerns faced by Americans. However, Vice President Harris has offered little clarity on how her energy policies would differ from President Biden’s, despite her recent declaration: “My presidency will not be a continuation of Joe Biden’s presidency.”

Despite being given the opportunity to distinguish herself from Biden’s policies in two recent, notably non-confrontational interviews-one on The View and the other with Stephen Colbert-Harris failed to provide specific examples of how her energy policies would diverge. Instead, voters are left wondering: If Harris were elected president, how would her administration tackle energy issues? Would it bring real change, or continue along Biden’s path of rising energy costs and uncertain energy production?

One key problem facing Harris is the stark contradiction between her current rhetoric and her previous stances on energy issues like fracking and oil production. Camila Thorndike, Harris’s newly appointed energy and climate engagement advisor, recently told Politico that Harris’s positions on energy issues are no different from what the current administration has already said. Thorndike advised voters to examine Harris’s record, claiming it speaks for itself. But Harris’s record is, in fact, the source of much confusion and skepticism.
