@iowastartingline State Rep. Adam Zabner (D-Iowa City) explains why he and other Iowa Democrats are backing Vice President Kamala Harris in her presidential run. On Monday, Iowa’s delegation to the Democratic National Convention unanimously affirmed their support for Harris following President Joe Biden’s decision to rescind his candidacy. The Iowa delegation joins others across the country backing Harris, fast-tracking her path to the nomination. The Democratic National Convention takes place in Chicago next month, where delegates will officially select the Democratic candidate for president in 2024. #iowa #iowanews #iowalife #kamalaharris #election2024 ♬ original sound – Iowa Starting Line

Iowa Rep. Megan Srinivas (D-Des Moines) has always heard she could do anything, but she rarely saw faces like hers at the top of leadership. VP Harris’ presidential candidacy has changed that for her and so many other women of color in the country.
