Advisory: Vice President Harris to Deliver Keynote Speech at SEIU Convention in Philadelphia

On Tuesday, May 21, Vice President Kamala Harris will return to Philadelphia, PA to deliver the keynote speech at the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) quadrennial convention. This visit is a continuation of the Vice President's consistent efforts to fight for workers across America, including as Chair of the White House Task Force on Worker Organizing and Empowerment.

Last month, the Vice President joined SEIU and nursing home care workers in La Crosse, WI to make an announcement about two final rules to establish minimum staffing requirements for federally funded nursing homes, and help raise pay for home and community-based service workers. Last year, she also participated in a moderated conversation with SEIU in Philadelphia where she highlighted the Biden-Harris Administration's actions to invest in and protect workers.

This will be the Vice President's fourth visit to Pennsylvania this year and her 14th since being sworn in. Last week, she joined Sheryl Lee Ralph in Montgomery County for a moderated conversation about reproductive freedoms. Last month, Vice President Harris was also in Philadelphia for a roundtable conversation about the historic steps that she and President Biden have taken to forgive student loan debt for millions of Americans. In February, she returned to Pittsburgh to announce funding for clean water infrastructure that is helping to remove lead pipes and ensure more children and families have access to clean, safe drinking water.
