While Harris does not intend to disclose this plan publicly, she wants to break with Biden on economic issues and, first of all, on rising prices, the report said, citing the vice president’s advisers. This is part of a "highly choreographed" effort aimed at portraying Harris as a different kind of Democrat, according to the report.
Harris plans to share with voters how she would govern if she wins the November election during her first policy speech in North Carolina on Friday and in the address at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago next week, the report said.
In North Carolina, she is expected to share her plans to lower costs of health care, housing and food for the middle class.

Harris also wants to assure the public that she can change some of her positions and to show people that her White House experience helped change her mind, the report said.
"She can't break the glass ceiling with a weak foundation. She knows she has to be tough." Donna Brazile, a former Democratic National Committee chairwoman, said.
