PHOENIX – Second gentleman Doug Emhoff will campaign in Arizona later this week as part of the Investing in America tour.
Vice President Kamala Harris’ husband will first speak at a campaign event in Scottsdale on Friday at 9:30 a.m.
At this time, he is scheduled to join Black community leaders at an Arizona Black Leadership panel to discuss what’s at stake for Black Arizonans this presidential election, according to a press release that details his visit.
Later that afternoon, at 1:30 p.m., he will join Mayor Kate Gallego and other Arizona leaders to celebrate the opening of Team Biden-Harris and the Arizona Democratic Party’s 12th field office in Phoenix.
