Kamala Harris To Visit City

New Haven is preparing for a visit Friday from Vice-President Kamala Harris.

Her office confirmed that Harris plans to come to the city, where she is expected to tout the newly passed $1.9 trillion Covid-19 relief package. Details of the visit have not yet been announced.

The Biden Administration and Democratic Party are making a point of visiting communities throughout the nation to tout the specific benefits of the bill in order to ensure they get credit come the 2022 mid-term elections.

Harris is expected to speak along with New Haven U.S. Rep. Rosa DeLauro. The Covid relief package included a poverty-fighting child tax credit that DeLauro, now the chair of the House Appropriations Committee, has championed for 18 years.
