Vice President Kamala Harris is visiting several U.S. states, expressing her views on local issues, including Florida’s education on slavery, Iowa’s abortion laws, and rallying Latinos against Republicans in Chicago. Harris, the first woman of color Vice President, is gearing up to open the NAACP’s annual conference in Boston, a critical event for Black Americans and the Democratic party’s 2024 election strategy.
This string of public appearances is part of an expanded role for Harris, as senior Democrats aim to increase her visibility ahead of the next election. The goal is to connect Harris with both loyal supporters and potential voters who may not yet be familiar with the Biden administration’s work.
Reverend Al Sharpton, a civil rights activist, urged the White House to give Harris more exposure to inform the public about the administration’s efforts. Biden’s 2020 victory was largely attributed to Black voters, but recent polls suggest a drop in enthusiasm from this group, something Democrats aim to address.
Despite her active role, Harris’s approval ratings remain low. However, her latest speeches are sparking criticism from Republicans, demonstrating divisions within the opposing party. As President Biden is 80, some Republicans suggest Harris could become president if Biden wins in 2024.
Despite initial popularity, Harris has faced criticism during her term, especially over immigration issues. Supporters hope her increased visibility will help her regain her appeal, and early Harris supporters have reported more direct communication about her activities.
