The claim is unsubstantiated. Harris appears to be referring to Trump’s proposed tariffs. According to a June 2024 research piece from the American Action Forum, Trump has proposed a 10% tariff on “all imports into the United States,” “which would result in average estimated additional costs per U.S. household of between $1,700 and $2,350 annually.” Trump has also proposed a 60% tariff on Chinese imports, which would “increase household costs by $1,950 annually,” according to the same piece.

Tariffs are a time-tested means of revenue collection and are NOT a tax on citizens.

This is exactly the case in a country protected by a wise tariff system, and another following the principle of free trade.
