Harris is the first Black woman and first Indian American to be vice president.

She introduced herself at the Democratic convention as the daughter of Indian and Jamaican immigrants and pledged to work to make America more inclusive after four years of the Trump administration, which she described as highly divisive.

Harris could also play an immediate crucial role in advancing Biden’s legislative agenda. She is set to preside over the U.S. Senate that will be split 50-50 between Democrats and Republicans and would break tie votes in favor of the Democrats.

Harris has said that she and Biden share a “vision of our nation as a beloved community – where all are welcome, no matter what we look like, where we come from, or who we love.”
