Kamala Harris Visits Campus

Vice President Kamala Harris, Congresswoman Mikie Sherrill (NJ-11) and Governor Phil Murphy visited the Ben Samuels Children’s Center on the Montclair State University campus on Friday, October 8 to highlight the importance of federal funding for child care.

The group spent time with children in two classrooms and held a roundtable discussion with educators as part of their midday visit, which was open only to the news media, including representatives from the University’s student media organizations.

“A lot of the work that we are doing right now – it’s work that the Governor has been doing his entire career, the Congresswoman is leading in the United States Congress – is the work of recognizing the significance of supporting our parents, supporting our children, and understanding that it is about an investment in our collective future,” Harris said during the discussion.
