#RepublicansForBiden proudly support Biden-Harris 2020. Here's a thread to introduce Joe’s new running mate, @KamalaHarris, to our fellow conservatives, independents, and Republicans. #MeetKamala
Harris was born and raised in Oakland, CA to her mother, Shyamala Gopalan, and father, Donald Harris. Her mom immigrated to the States from India to study endocrinology and nutrition, while her dad was a Jamaican economics scholar. They were active in the Civil Rights Movement.
Kamala’s name comes from the Sanskrit word meaning "lotus" flower. #MeetKamala
In high school, Harris realized a friend was being sexually abused by the girl's own father; Harris invited the girl to live with her family. Harris later began her career specializing in prosecuting child sex abuse & domestic violence cases. mentalfloss.com/article/90839/…
But Harris didn’t just show up for women and children in the courtroom. She developed a program with the @sfgov Public Health to help emergency rooms spot evidence of child sexual abuse, and she got San Francisco its first safe house for children escaping from sex work.
Kamala married her husband, Douglas Emhoff, in 2014 after they met on a blind date the year before. Emhoff had two kids from a previous relationship, who affectionately call Harris “Momala.” #MeetKamala

FUN FACT: Biden and Harris both met their spouses on blind dates.
A LOL story about Kamala meeting Doug’s parents for the first time. #MeetKamala
As California’s Attorney General, Kamala prosecuted transnational gangs that exploited women and children and trafficked in guns and drugs. She led comprehensive studies and investigations into the impacts of transnational criminal organizations and human trafficking.
As AG, Harris successfully sued predatory colleges that scammed students & veterans. She also established CA’s Bureau of Children’s Justice and reduced elementary school truancy so every child can exercise their right to education. #MeetKamala
Kamala loves cooking, especially with Doug. “[W]e have fun making meals… He's my sous chef and has these goggles that he puts on when chopping onions. It's hilarious.” When stressed, she reads recipes to relax. #MeetKamala essence.com/news/californi…
Check out this fun video from the primary of Sen Harris and @mindykaling cooking! #MeetKamala
Senator Harris is a member of the Intelligence, Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs, Budget, and Judiciary committees.
