DURHAM, N.C. — Vice President Kamala Harris is expected to travel to Durham, North Carolina, on Friday.

The visit is part of the administration’s Investing in America tour.

She will be joined by Deputy Secretary of the Treasury Wally Adeyemo and Governor Roy Cooper.

This will be her tenth trip to the state since being sworn in and her second trip this year.

Last month, she visited a Charlotte-area school to announce an additional $285 million in funding to help schools across the country hire and train mental health counselors.

The funding was a result of the historic Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, the most significant gun safety law in nearly 30 years.
