Vice President Kamala Harris will not seek to ban fracking if she is elected president, according to an official from her campaign. This marks a significant shift from her previous stance during the crowded 2019 presidential primary, where she endorsed a fracking ban. The GOP has seized upon Harris' past anti-fracking position, highlighting her previous statements in favor of banning fracking, including a notable remark in 2020.
