Back when Kamala was Attorney General, she worked closely with Beau. I watched as they took on the big banks, lifted up working people, and protected women and kids from abuse. I was proud then, and I'm proud now to have her as my partner in this campaign.

I'm honored to join him as our party's nominee for Vice President, and do what it takes to make him our Commander-in-Chief.
