Vice President Kamala Harris will address the Zeta Phi Beta sorority in Indianapolis, missing Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's address to Congress.
Vice President Kamala Harris, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, is expected to be skipping Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's address to Congress, instead giving a speech at a sorority house on Wednesday. Fox News Digital confirmed on Tuesday that Harris declined to preside over a Wednesday joint address to Congress by Netanyahu because she will be in Indiana for an event that was previously scheduled, per an aide.
With Harris's absence, the task ordinarily would fall to Senate President pro tempore Patty Murray, D-Wash., but Murray reportedly refused to do so and will instead be boycotting the address. When Harris' office was asked Tuesday if she would have agreed to preside over Netanyahu's address if she were going to be in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday, an aide to the vice president said they would not answer hypothetical questions.
