Vice President Kamala Harris visits Seattle, discusses climate change actions

Vice President Kamala Harris visited Seattle on Tuesday to speak about the Inflation Reduction Act.

During her visit, Harris highlighted the Biden administration's action on climate change, aligning with President Joe Biden's recent efforts in delivering the same environmental message during his swing through western states this past week.

The VP arrived at King County International Airport-Boeing Field shortly after 11 a.m. 

At about noon, Harris joined Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm, and discussed the Biden-Harris administration’s continued commitment to addressing climate change while building a clean energy economy that creates good-paying jobs. 

After 3:30 p.m., Harris was scheduled to depart from Seattle.

The Seattle Department of Transportation warned people traveling through the area to expect significant delays.
