WASHINGTON – Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris told CNN on Thursday that she would not ban fracking if elected president.

“No, and I made that clear on the debate stage in 2020 that I would not ban fracking, as vice president, I did not ban fracking. As president, I will not ban fracking,” Harris said in an interview aired on Thursday evening.
