VP Harris Cancels Flight to LA

Vice President Kamala Harris canceled plans to fly to Los Angeles Thursday evening.

Harris had been scheduled to arrive at Los Angeles International Airport at 11:35 p.m. Thursday, according to the White House. But around midday Thursday, her office announced that she “will not travel to Los Angeles, CA, and will remain in Washington, D.C.”

No reason was given for the cancellation. It was unclear if it was related to the possibility of a government shutdown due to congressional disagreement on a spending measure.

Details of Harris’ previously planned trip to the Southland were not disclosed, but the vice president sometimes spends weekends at her home in Brentwood.

Harris has been mum on her plans for the future after losing last month’s presidential election to Donald Trump. On Tuesday, she implored young people not to lose hope, during a speech at Prince George’s Community College in Maryland.

“Folks have said to me that they’re not sure whether they have the strength, much less the desire, to stay in the fight,” she said. “But let me be very clear: No one can walk away. No one can walk away. We must stay in the fight, every one of us.”
