Vice President Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, are set to sit for their first joint interview since they rode to the top of the Democratic ticket about a month ago.
CNN’s Dana Bash landed the coveted task of interviewing the duo during a stop in Georgia with the interview airing on the network and its platforms on Thursday at 9 p.m. ET.
Though Harris has stopped to talk to reporters traveling with her on the campaign trail, the interview comes as she faces mounting pressure to make a major media appearance to answer pressing questions on her record as vice president and what her plans are for a potential first-term as commander-in-chief.
Harris had a shaky start to her vice presidency in part because of her work on the U.S.-Mexico border, after President Biden gave her the lead on addressing the root causes of migration.
Republicans have dubbed that role as “border czar” in an effort to tie her to the influx of migrants at the border.
Perhaps one of the most notable moments in Harris’s early tenure was during a press conference in Mexico in which she told Guatemala migrants “do not come,” which sparked ridicule as well as pushback from progressives.
