Harris claims ad quoting her 2019 vow to ban fracking is 'mischaracterization' to make people 'afraid' of her
'There’s no question I’m in favor of banning fracking,' Harris said while running for the 2020 Democratic nomination
Vice President Kamala Harris argued this week that an ad showing a clip of her past rhetoric about fracking is misleading and "intended to make people afraid of my presidency."

CBS Pittsburgh's Jon Delano spoke with Harris in an interview on Tuesday, challenging her to clarify her evolving stance on fracking, one of many key issues where she has been accused of flip-flopping for political gain.

"I wanted to ask you, there’s a political ad on TV from a 2019 climate hall town meeting that you had, in which you basically said, quote, ‘There’s no question I’m in favor of banning fracking,’ unquote," the interviewer said. "The ad claims that if you are elected president you will ban fracking and you will cost Pennsylvania over 300,000 jobs. Have you changed your view on fracking, and if so, why?"
