Rep. Pramila Jayapal said Monday it is more natural for Harris to have empathy for Palestinians in the Israel-Hamas war.
DALLAS, TEXAS - JULY 10: U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris speaks to members of the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority at the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center on July 10, 2024 in Dallas, Texas.
I think there’s a new opportunity to appeal to – and I’m not saying it will be easy – but I do think there’s a new opportunity to appeal to Muslim voters, to young voters, to Arab American voters, to Black voters, to labor voters,” Rep. Jayapal said. “These are all folks who care about this issue.” Rep. Jayapal argued Harris is more capable of discussing the war’s effects on Gaza, where nearly 40,000 people have died, according to the city’s health ministry.
Biden won the battleground state of Michigan in 2020. Harris can help rally the same voters that helped the president then, according to Rep. Jayapal.
