In Historic Vice Presidency, Harris Starts Off With A Traditional Approach
With intense scrutiny over her barrier-breaking new position, Vice President Harris is sticking to low-key public appearances, advising President Biden behind the scenes and supporting his agenda.
It's very early in Kamala Harris' vice presidency. So early, in fact, that she still has not yet moved into the official vice presidential residence at Washington, D.C.'s Naval Observatory as it undergoes maintenance work, according to a White House official.
But in her first two weeks on the job, the barrier-breaking first woman and first woman of color to serve in a job first held by John Adams has, so far at least, operated a lot like many of the vice presidents who came before her.
Harris has mostly been seen standing at President Biden's side as he delivers remarks and signs executive orders. She's sworn in members of Biden's Cabinet.
All standard fare for vice presidents
