He noted challenges to the campaign timeline due to President Biden’s decision not to seek reelection, but expressed confidence in his ability to handle tough challenges against powerful interests. Harris also shared her personal story, reflecting her immigrant background and her commitment to advocating for marginalized communities. He called on voters to reject former President Trump’s influence and reminded them of the extraordinary potential to shape America’s future. Harris concluded by encouraging action to turn a new page in the country’s story.
