by - February 19, 2021

 On Thursday, Madam Vice President began the day by joining President Biden in the Oval Office to receive the President's Daily Briefs which was followed 45 minutes later with a COVID-19 briefing.

Later she joined a virtual round table meeting with senior female congress leaders and women advocacy groups to discourse the American Rescue Plans and the impacts on women and their families at the South Court Auditorium of the Eisenhower Executive Office Building.

Madam Vice President reiterated the importance for Congress to pass the bill which will aid women who are affected during the pandemic. In an Op-ed which she wrote for the Washington Post on Friday and similar to what she said on Thursday, about 2.5 million women left the work force since the beginning of the pandemic which constituted a “national emergency,” one that she said could be addressed by the Biden administration’s coronavirus relief plan.

In the middle of the awards show, she addressed viewers virtually with a message of hope as well as thanking Latin artists for their music.

"Tonight we celebrate the Latino artists of our nation and our world," Harris began. "In a time of so much uncertainty, so much loss, your music has brought us solace and strength. As we work to beat this virus and rebuild our economy, we need that spirit of hope that artists inspire. We need that spirit of resilience that frontline workers demonstrate each and every day and we need that spirit of unity that keeps our communities together even when times are tough."
