LANSING — Ahead of Vice President Kamala Harris’ visit to Detroit on May 6th, Chair of the Michigan Democratic Party Lavora Barnes welcomes her to Michigan and highlights how the Biden-Harris administration and campaign has shown up for Black communities time and time again: 

“We are so excited to have Vice President Harris back in our state. This is what a real leader looks like – someone who shows up and walks the walk, not just talks the talk. Since the first days of this administration, President Biden and Vice President Harris have been investing in communities of color, and this visit is just another example of their dedication to showing up for Michiganders. From historic low Black unemployment to investing in our auto industry to capping the cost of insulin at $35 a month, the Biden-Harris administration has had Michiganders’ backs at every turn.

“While Trump wants to drag us backwards, our trailblazer of a Vice President continues to demonstrate true leadership and passion. Michiganders understand Republicans’ extreme MAGA agenda for what it is, and I have no doubt they will once again reject MAGA Republicans this November.”
