My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best decision I’ve made. Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year. Democrats – it’s time to come together and beat

This Sunday was no different, and after President Biden’s announcement to drop out of the race was made, the call was put out. This time, attendance ballooned, with more than 40,000 Black women organized on the call. An impressive feat, in just 3 hours, the group had raised more than $1.5 million as a show of support for VP Kamala Harris.
