"Over the past four years, the @VP's ideas and values shaped the best parts of the Biden agenda. From education & gun safety to equal pay & climate change, proposals Harris developed...are now government policy."
I laid out the recepits in the @ajc. 🧵ajc.com/opinion/opinio…
Take education. In 2019, Harris was the first candidate in history to propose a federal plan to raise teacher pay. The plan was designed to close the pay gap between teachers and similarly educated professionals. Every other candidate followed her lead. chalkbeat.org/2019/3/26/2112…

Another thing VP Harris gets no credit for? Her ideas.
From education to gun safety to climate change, ideas she proposed in the Senate and during her campaign are now government policy. 🧵
Take education. In 2019, Harris was the first candidate in history to propose a federal plan to raise teacher pay across the country. She made the issue of focal point of the 2020 Dem primary, with every other candidate following her lead. chalkbeat.org/2019/3/26/2112…

Lets talk about guns. @KamalaHarris just proposed the most aggressive executive actions on guns in history. If Congress fails to pass a gun safety bill w/n her first 100 days as president, she'll take action herself. It's simple: We're not waiting any longer. #CNNTownHall 1/
Here's what she wants on her desk: universal background checks, an assault weapons ban, & repeal of the @NRA’s corporate gun immunity bill. We have good ideas. Now we need the courage to do what's right. So if Rs continue to cower to the @NRA, she'll take them on herself...2/
