Kamala Harris Talks Small Business Recovery During Milwaukee Visit

Source: Milwaukee Courier

With the 2020 presidential election just a few months away, Democratic Vice President Candidate Kamala Harris visited Milwaukee on Labor Day, the same day Vice President Mike Pence visited La Crosse. While here, she first toured the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) training facility and then participated in a “Build Better Milwaukee” roundtable. This was Harris’ first in-person visit for the Biden-Harris campaign.

The roundtable participants were Lt. Gov. Mandela Barnes, Co-Founder of Y.E.S. Qaiyim “Que” El-Amin, Vice President of JCP Construction James Phelps, Sherman Phoenix Co-Founder JoAnne Sabir, Director of the Office of Violence Prevention Reggie Moore and Founder of Jet Constellations Nadiyah Johnson.

Harris provided remarks on how the Biden-Harris administration would advance small business growth. She cited access to capital as an important source to small businesses survival. If elected, Harris stated that she and Democratic Presidential Candidate Joe Biden would work to provide increased access to capital.

Access to capital is about putting money into opportunity zones is one part, but also $150 billion in new capital and opportunities around investing in private venture capital as well as what the government can do,” Harris said.

Biden/Harris are showing Wisconsin some love. Of course, the media might not be inclined to pay attention to an straight talking African American woman. Instead, the lies of a rich white guy will continue to dominate the media.

2. People Can't Get Over Mike Pence's Latest 'Ridiculous' Praise Of Donald Trump

The interesting thing is that when VP utters BS praising Trump, it becomes widely circulated news. Yet, when Kamala Harris meets with constituents and does not spout complete BS, it is generally ignored.

Vice President Mike Pence raised eyebrows with his latest praise of President Donald Trump, which critics described as “ridiculous” and “embarrassing.”

“I always tell people that to know President Trump is to know someone whose word is his bond,” Pence claimed Thursday during a “Life Wins!” event in Raleigh, North Carolina.

Twitter users quickly reminded Pence of the thousands of lies that Trump has told throughout his time in office.

“Do you think these guys wake up in the morning and say to themselves ‘What is the craziest thing I can say in defense of the boss today?’” asked Al Jazeera presenter Mehdi Hasan.
