HARRIS: “And a certificate of appointment to fill the vacancy created by the resignation of former Senator Kamala D. Harris of California." (LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE)
Kamala Harris has made a career out of breaking barriers
The vice president not only made history becoming the first woman
first Black American
and first Asian American to hold the second highest office in the U.S.
She also served as San Francisco’s first female district attorney
and was California’s first woman of color to be elected attorney general
Some 100 days into her term she provided the key extra vote in the Senate to pass Biden’s $1.9 trillion relief package
and was named to lead U.S. efforts to stem the flow of migration from Central America
A recent Reuters poll showed that more than 90 percent of Americans
think the U.S. could have its first woman president within a decade
