Vice President Kamala Harris has been actively engaging with key figures in the political landscape, including a recent round of calls to Congressional Hispanic Caucus Chair Nanette Barragán. Sources familiar with the conversations have revealed that Harris' team is also reaching out to senators as part of their outreach efforts.
During the calls, Harris expressed her intention to earn the nomination and sought support from Barragán. In response, Barragán expressed her full backing of the vice president, stating that she is 100% behind Harris.
Earlier on Sunday, following President Joe Biden's decision to drop out of the race, Barragán praised Biden's extensive record of public service. She acknowledged Biden as one of the most influential world leaders in American history and expressed gratitude for his decades of dedication to the United States.
Barragán also highlighted the collaborative efforts between President Biden, Vice President Harris, and the Congressional Hispanic Caucus in advancing the mission to empower and uplift Latinos across America. She expressed eagerness to continue working closely with the administration in furthering their shared goals.
The outreach from Vice President Harris to key stakeholders underscores the administration's commitment to engaging with diverse communities and building strong partnerships to address pressing issues facing the nation.
