Sen. Kamala Harris now says she does not support federally mandated busing, putting her more in line with former Vice President Joe Biden’s position, which he attacked in the first round of Democrat debates.
During the second night of Democrat debates at the end of June, Harris squared off against Biden on the issue of race. Harris at first took issue with Biden’s recent praise of two senators who were segregationists, but she turned her criticism into an issue over busing as a means to integrate schools. Harris told the story of “a little girl in California” who benefited from federally mandated busing. In the 1970s, Biden opposed a federal mandate for busing.
