Jennifer also sang the praises of Harriscomparing their upbringings, saying the vice president “gets it.”

“When I started acting in TV and film, I could get roles as a maid or a loud Latina, but I knew I had more to offer,” Jennifer said. “And I think there’s a lot of people in this country who feel the same way, who know they’re capable of more, and we all just want a chance to prove it.” And elections are about electing leaders who support that, not leaders who get in the way.”

I know how it feels and I wouldn’t do it to my worst enemy or even when I’m facing the biggest adversary I think America has had internally. But throughout Kamala Harris’ career, she has proven to us who she is.”
