Kamala Harris to swear in LA Mayor-elect Karen Bass on Sunday

Vice President Kamala Harris will perform the ceremonial swearing-in of Los Angeles Mayor-elect Karen Bass during her inauguration on Sunday, Dec. 11 – a moment that will be filled with historical significance.

Bass, a six-term congresswoman, is the first woman and only the second Black person to be elected mayor of L.A. in the city’s 241-year history. Similarly, Harris is the first woman, and first woman of color, to serve as vice president of the United States.

Sunday’s event, announced by the Office of the Mayor-elect, won’t be the first time that Harris, a California native who owns a home in L.A., has appeared alongside Bass on her journey to the mayor’s office.
