Vice President Kamala Harris sat down for an exclusive interview with CNN’s Dana Bash on Thursday.
It was Harris’ first in-depth interview with a major media outlet since she became the Democratic Party’s presidential nominee earlier this month. She was joined by her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz.
During the interview, Harris offered her most expansive explanation to date on why she’s changed some of her positions on fracking and immigration, telling Bash her values haven’t shifted but that her time as vice president provided new perspective on some of the country’s most pressing issues.
She also told Bash she would name a Republican to serve in her Cabinet if elected.
