I assume they’re referring to Harris saying that, as president, she would not ban fracking and taking that to mean that she supports it.
However, not banning something doesn’t necessarily mean you actually support it. I would think that being in support of fracking means you’d be looking to encourage/expand it. Which she hasn’t done to my knowledge.
Yeah, I suppose that could be it. Also, I don’t think that people realize that if a major party candidate called for a ban on fracking with the on-going war in Ukraine still an issue, it would send energy prices across the world skyrocketing. One of the whole reasons we’ve been ramping up production in the US is to stabilize oil prices.
Yet another reason it would be really nice if Republicans quit playing games about aid and support for Ukraine. The quicker Russia withdraws troops, the quicker we can step away from fracking.
