Vice President Kamala Harris visits Brooklyn and Long Island
NEW YORK -- Vice President Kamala Harris was in Brooklyn on Thursday to discuss the administration's investment in underserved communities and small businesses.
Harris toured the Bedford-Stuyvesant Restoration Corporation Economic Solutions Center and announced more than 20 private-sector organizations are joining the administration to increase opportunity in low-income communities.
"These organizations with us will invest tens of billions of dollars to provide capital to community lenders, to support entrepreneurship, in particular for women-owned and minority-owned businesses," Harris said.
Thursday evening, the vice president is attending a fundraising event in Suffolk County.
