The ban is part of a broader effort by the Democratic presidential nominee to respond to voters' ongoing frustration with the high cost of meat and groceries.

Harris will also pledge that if elected, she will increase scrutiny of potential mergers between grocers and food producers.

This package of regulatory proposals is one of Harris ' earliest efforts to outline an economic platform that is independent of President Joe Biden's agenda.
