White House Defends Kamala Harris Getting Cake in Chicago Despite Border Crisis Tasks
White House Defends Kamala Harris Getting Cake in Chicago Despite Border Crisis Tasks
by CHARLIE SPIERING 7 Apr 2021
The White House defended Vice President Kamala Harris on Wednesday for traveling to Chicago this week despite being tasked by the president with leading on issues related to the border crisis.
White House press secretary Jen Psaki spoke about Harris’s visit to Chicago on Tuesday to promote Americans getting their coronavirus vaccination shots. During the visit, the vice president also stopped and got a piece of cake at the Brown Sugar Bakery in Chicago.
“While she was there, like many Americans, she got a snack, I think she’s allowed to do that,” Psaki said during the White House press briefing when asked about Harris’s visit to the bakery.
Psaki also pointed to a couple of statements released by the vice president’s office as evidence that Harris was still leading on the border crisis issue.
“This is absolutely an issue that she remains committed to, is in the lead on,” she said, referring to the vice president.
Since President Joe Biden appointed Harris to take the lead on handling the migrant crisis, the vice president has traveled to her home in southern California, appeared with California governor Gavin Newsom in Oakland, and held events in Connecticut and Chicago.
Harris still has no plans to visit the border, despite telling reporters in March that she would probably make the trip at some point.
Psaki clarified that Harris was more focused on handling the “root causes” of migration in the countries of Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador rather than the overall crisis on the Southern border.
She also declined to say whether Biden or Harris were prepared to visit the border to address the ongoing crisis of unattended minors flooding across the Southern border.
“I don’t have any trips to outline or preview,” she said. “What our focus is on is solutions.”
