Kamala Harris: America’s next vice president
Kamala Devi Harris, a senator who has represented California in the U.S. Congress since 2017, will break barriers when she is inaugurated as vice president of the United States on January 20.
She will be the first woman — and the first person of African, Jamaican and South Asian ancestry — to occupy that position.
“While I may be the first woman in this office, I will not be the last — because every little girl watching tonight sees that this is a country of possibilities,” Harris said on November 7, 2020.
