During CNN’s town hall event on Wednesday night, Harris, the Democrat presidential candidate, was asked point blank about the legislative policy goals she would pursue if she won the presidency.
An audience member asked Harris to name “one major policy goal” that she wanted to pursue in Congress and why.
“Well, there’s not just one,” Harris responded.
“There’s a lot of work that needs to happen,” she continued.
“I think that maybe part of this point that — how I think about it is we’ve got to get past this era of politics and partisan politics slowing down what we need to do in terms of progress in our country.
“And that means working across the aisle.”
She claimed that she has accomplished things in bipartisan fashion before.
Harris then continued by arguing that she was committing to “work with Democrats, with Republicans, with independents to deal with a number of issues.”
“Whether it be what we need to do in terms of housing and creating legislation that creates incentives for that,” she said.
“What we need to do to reinstate the freedom of a woman to make decisions about her own body and not have her government tell her what to do.”
“Whether it be what we need to do to actually invest in a substantial way in the industries of the future, in American-based manufacturing, in American-based industries where American workers and union workers have those jobs in a way that is good-paying jobs that gives people the dignity they deserve,” she continued.
“All of those areas I plan on working across the aisle and with Congress, including the issue of immigration which we’ve got to fix.”
Harris didn’t answer the question during her world salad response.

The non-answer from Harris even provoked criticism from CNN’s Dana Bash.
“But what will she do?” Bash said.
“The question about her legislative priorities.
“Name one. There wasn’t one.”
WATCH:
It’s no wonder that Democrat voters are widely ignorant about Harris’s “policies.”
