Veep does Vogue

Vice president and presidential candidate Kamala Harris covers November's issue of Vogue and discusses various issues affecting Americans...

On the Middle East- "A lot of the work that needs to be done,” Harris says, “is a function of the circumstances at the moment. I can’t anticipate what the circumstances will be four months from now.” (I
imagine even worse than they are now, regardless of who wins).

...There’s been a language and a conversation around what’s been happening,
particularly around Israel and Gaza, that suggests that this is binary.
It’s not,” she tells me. “You’re not either for this one or for that one.” A better conversation, she thinks, is about the region and its interlocking
crises. “On October 7, 1,200 people were massacred, including hundreds of young people at a concert. Women were horribly raped,” she says, and pauses
for emphasis. “And far too many Palestinians have been killed.”

On women's issues- Across the country, voters disturbed to see women robbed of agency and health care rallied to a candidate unshy of leading with reproductive freedom... “She was like, Well, why don’t we bring in labor? Where are the women’s organizations focused on paid leave? What about the orgs that are focused on, like, the Divine Nine sororities? What about women in faith?"
