Tammy Duckworth statement on selection of Sen Kamala Harris as VP.

Tammy Duckworth @TammyforIL

I look forward to working as hard as I can to elect Joe Biden & Kamala Harris. Our nation needs a President—and our troops deserve a commander in chief—who is competent, effective and has the empathy needed to lead this great, diverse country through these difficult times.

Tammy Duckworth is a classy, no BS type of go getter. You'll see more of her and I hope that Biden puts her in charge of Veteran Affairs.

But I would have hated losing her as one of my senators, although she would have been a great VP choice.
