Harris wanted to raise taxes on those making 400,000 just like biden, it didn't disappear at all. She also talked about introducing an unrealized gains tax on those with gains worth more than 100 million. You can't say she didn't want to increase taxes on the rich unless you ignore her policy proposals.
While I don't know about this particular promise, Harris's campaign progressively dropped or watered down economic policy promises as the election got closer. I can't find the source, but there was an article here after the election with data on this.
