CNN: “Thus far, Harris has not been tasked with a key portfolio issue distinct from President Joe Biden, who by this point in his vice presidency in 2009 was key in corralling votes for the Recovery Act and overseeing its implementation on his own.”
“Harris instead has wrapped herself around Biden’s singular legislative focus as his full partner, promoting the American Rescue Plan in public and behind the scenes, while also carving out interest areas of her own from foreign policy to small businesses.”
“Allies of Harris argue it’s still early for her to have her own portfolio since the administration’s focus has squarely been squarely on the pandemic, but they are watching closely to see what comes next.”
