The White House announced on Wednesday that Vice President Kamala Harris has been briefed on the wildfires ravaging Los Angeles and the federal response efforts in place. The wildfires have prompted evacuation orders for thousands of Californians, including Harris' own Los Angeles residence.
Harris' spokesperson, Ernesto Apreza, confirmed that no one was present in the Vice President's home at the time of the evacuation order. Apreza also stated that Harris and the Second Gentleman are keeping the safety of their fellow Californians, first responders, and Secret Service personnel in their thoughts and prayers.
