Media Advisory: Vice President Kamala Harris to Travel to Flagstaff, AZ

October 13, 2023

On Tuesday, October 17, Vice President Kamala Harris will continue her "Fight for Our Freedoms" College Tour with a moderated conversation at Northern Arizona University – a Hispanic-Serving Institution in Flagstaff, AZ. This campus event will be the ninth stop on the Vice President's nationwide college tour.

Vice President Harris's "Fight for Our Freedoms" College Tour is a high-energy national swing that is mobilizing thousands of young people in the ongoing fight for fundamental freedoms and rights. She is visiting around a dozen campuses including HBCUs, community colleges, apprenticeship programs, state schools, and additional Hispanic-Serving Institutions. At each stop, the Vice President is focusing on key issues that disproportionately impact young people across America – from reproductive freedom and gun safety to climate action, voting rights, LGBTQ+ equality, mental health, and book bans.

The Vice President's more than a month-long college tour kicked off in September with stops at Hampton University, North Carolina A&T State University, Reading Area Community College, and IBEW Local 743 in Pennsylvania. She also participated in moderated conversations at Florida International University – one of the largest Hispanic Serving Institutions in the country – and Morehouse College where she spoke with students from four HBCUs. Earlier this week, Vice President Harris was at the College of Charleston and the College of Southern Nevada. The tour is a continuation of her dedicated work to energize, engage, and partner with young people throughout the country. She has already been to 18 college campuses this year after visiting 14 schools in 2022.

The Vice President's arrival at Flagstaff Pulliam Airport will be open to pre-credentialed press. Interested media should RSVP HERE by 5:00 pm ET on Monday, October 16.
