When questioned about her remark that aid for areas hit by the destructive Hurricane Ian should be based on “equity,” Vice President Kamala Harris avoided answering.
At the 51st annual Phoenix Awards dinner, which was hosted by the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation on Saturday night in Washington, Harris was questioned by a reporter who said, “Vice President, can you clarify what you meant about equity for hurricane relief?” Despite direct eye contact with the reporter, the vice president did not answer the query and left with a security detail.
Kamala Harris IGNORES Questions About Her Claiming Hurricane Ian Relief Was Based On ‘Equity’
This comes after the Democrat vice president received harsh criticism for declaring that lower-income communities and people of color are “most impacted by these extreme [weather] conditions.”
Republican Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’ head of rapid response Christina Pushaw referred to Vice President Harris’ claims as false and added, “Her rhetoric is causing undue panic and must be clarified. FEMA Individual Assistance is already available to all Floridians impacted by Hurricane Ian, regardless of race or background.”
Harris already made headlines earlier this week while traveling to South Korea for the incorrect reasons when she extolled the US’s “strong alliance” with the “Republic of North Korea.” North Korea increased the threat of a credible nuclear power that can attack the United States and its allies by launching missiles before and after Harris’ visit to the peninsula, continuing a record pace of weapons testing this year.
Despite these mistakes, President Joe Biden declared: “Kamala won’t be the last woman to be vice president – or president” at a White House event on Friday.
