HOUSTON – Vice President Kamala Harris and Second Gentleman Douglas Emhoff landed in Houston on Monday as the Vice President participated in a Congressional Hispanic Caucus event.
The Vice President is scheduled to take part in a moderated conversation with Congressional Hispanic Caucus Chairwoman Nanette Diaz Barragan, U.S. Representative Sylvia Garcia, and Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo as part of the Caucus’s “On the Road” event series.
“During the 118th Congress, the CHC’s ‘On the Road’ initiative has served as a platform for CHC’s Members to connect with Latino communities across the country and inform them about the tools and resources the Biden-Harris Administration as well as the CHC have made available for their success,” a news release from the Office of Mayor Sylvester Turner read.
Mayor Turner also made remarks Monday afternoon as the vice president participated in the discussion.
