At a Las Vegas rally on Saturday, Vice President Kamala Harris suggested she would support ending taxes on tipping, a policy also championed by former President Trump.

Harris, endorsed by Culinary Union 226, which represents 60,000 workers in Las Vegas and Reno, promised to fight for working families, including raising the minimum wage and eliminating taxes on tips for service workers.
