Over 80 Nobel Laureates Endorse Harris for President

Over 80 Nobel Prize winners, including 23 economists, have endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris for president, emphasizing her commitment to science, technology, and economic policies that foster growth and sustainability. The Nobel laureates argued that Harris's approach would support advancements in living standards, life expectancy, and climate change responses, whereas former President Donald Trump's policies could hinder these areas. Trump's previous proposals included significant cuts to scientific funding and policies that could increase national debt and inflation. The economists further criticized Trump's economic agenda for its aggressive tariffs and tax cuts, which they argue would lead to greater inequality and larger deficits. They praised Harris's policies for enhancing economic resilience, fairness, and entrepreneurship. This endorsement highlights the perceived urgency of the upcoming election for the scientific community and the broader implications for U.S. economic and environmental policy.
