Kamala Harris Seeks to Rebuild Arab American Support Amid Middle East Tensions
Vice President Kamala Harris will meet with Arab American and Muslim leaders in Michigan to address concerns over U.S. support for Israel. Her campaign aims to regain support among voters who backed Joe Biden but may withhold votes due to her Middle East policy stance. Harris faces a tight race against Donald Trump.
Vice President Kamala Harris is set to engage with Arab American and Muslim leaders in Flint, Michigan, in a bid to address their grievances over the United States' support for Israel's military actions in Gaza and Lebanon.
This meeting is part of a broader strategy to win back the crucial Arab and Muslim vote, which significantly supported Joe Biden in the 2020 election but may now risk turning away from Harris in the upcoming presidential race against Donald Trump.
Amid escalating tensions and criticisms over her Middle East policies, Harris has met with influential groups like Emgage and spoken about her administration's stance on seeking peace and diplomacy in the region.
