  • Did the Kamala Harris/Tim Walz campaign propose a plan to put a 20 percent sales tax on all golf-related purchases in an effort to "Tax the Wealthy"? No, that's not true: The social media account that posted this message is self-described satire. A Google search found no results proving the campaign has suggested this. The claim appeared in a post (archived here) on X, formerly known as Twitter, on August 22, 2024, under the title "Kamala has officially lost every golfer's vote." Text on the image said: Kamala Harris and Tim Walz propose a plan to put a 20% sales tax on all golf related purchases including rounds, clubs, etc. in an effort to 'Tax the Wealthy. DBN News This is what the post looked like on X at the time of writing: (Source: X screenshot taken on Fri Aug 23 16:08:18 2024 UTC) The account @PGATUOR (archived here) has a logo of a person wearing what appears to be a thobe and cap, traditional clothing for Arab men, while swinging a golf club. Text in the logo is "PGA TUOR Parody Golf Association." The bio clearly states the account is about satire and parody, as this screenshot shows: (Source: X screenshot taken on Fri Aug 23 16:10:24 2024 UTC) Using keywords from the claim, Lead Stories searched Google (archived here) but found no results that proved the Harris/Walz campaign proposed a plan to put a 20 percent tax on all golf-related purchases. Had they done so, it would have been national and international news. While Harris gave a speech on August 16, 2024, about her economic plan, as news outlets reported (archived here), there was no written economic policy on her campaign website (archived here) as of August 23, 2024. Other Lead Stories fact checks of claims about Kamala Harris can be found here. Our fact checks of claims about the 2024 U.S. presidential election are here.
