.@VP Kamala Harris is the leader we NEED right now.

Yet, she has been subject to the kinds of petty criticisms reserved for women, particularly women of color and Black women.

Here's some advice for the media...

Rather than fueling ridiculous critiques of her tweets, or number of public appearances, perhaps the media could focus on the issues @VP is championing and spearheading -- BOTH in the frontlines and behind the scenes…
Our @VP is working hard to ensure:
💪🏿 #OurBodiesAreRespected, by cosponsoring the Black Maternal Health Momnibus Act of 2020 and advocating for abortion access

🛠️ #OurWorkIsValued, by championing the first ever National Domestic Workers Bill of Rights to guarantee protections for domestic workers

👩🏾👧🏽👶🏽👧🏽👨🏻 And one fight that is extremely near and dear to my heart, #OurFamiliesAreSupported, by advocating for #PaidLeave to be front and center in the #BuildBackBetter agenda

She exemplifies the importance of electing a government that represents us. She sees us, hears us, and advocates for US.

She leads with grace as she is subject to the kinds of attacks that her predecessors were not.

@KamalaHarris I’ve got your back.
