Vice PresidentĀ Kamala Harrisā€™ campaign on Sunday is launching ā€œRepublicans for Harrisā€ as she looks to win over Republican voters put off byĀ Donald Trumpā€™s candidacy.

The program will be a ā€œcampaign within a campaign,ā€ according to Harrisā€™ team, using well-known Republicans to activate their networks, with a particular emphasis on primary voters who backed former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley. The program will kick off with events this week in Arizona, North Carolina and Pennsylvania. Republicans backing Harris will also appear at rallies with the vice president and her soon-to-be-named running mate this coming week, the campaign said.

The Harris campaign shared the details of the program first with The Associated Press before the official announcement.

        They commit social murder daily, so yes, they indirectly want us dead while allowing DoE to lower its standards. Thereā€™s a reason the median reading and comprehension level of Americans is 6th grade (11-12 yo children) and our literacy levels are below many other countries considered 3rd world.

          Curious question, why is the Department of Education a part of the Executive branch? Doesnā€™t that seem like something that the legislative branch should be making regulations for? I donā€™t like the idea of them being laws because those arenā€™t fluid enough to adapt like education needs, but the executive branch seems a little stretched these days. Policing the state, regulation of education, regulation of energy, the list goes on and on
