by - April 21, 2021

 On Monday, Madam Vice President was wheels up from Joint Base Andrews on board Air Force 2 for Piedmont Triad International Airport in Greensboro, North Carolina around 9:25 a.m. where she was welcomed by Governor Roy Asberry Cooper III, U.S. Rep. Kathy Manning and Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Michael Regan greeted her to promote President Joe Biden's $2 trillion jobs and infrastructure plan.

This is her first time in North Carolina since January 20th.

1) Her first stop was in Guilford Technical Community College in Jameston where she toured and included delivering remarks  on the American Jobs Plan and laying out a vision for the future of the local community college. 



"We are going to take a giant leap into the future. That is what the American Jobs Plan is all about. It's a once-in-a-lifetime, once-in-a-generation investment in America's infrastructure, in America's future. It is what the American people deserve," the Vice President said.

"A chunk of the spending proposed in the plan would go to community colleges and job-training programs to help people obtain the needed skills beyond a high school education to obtain jobs in growing fields where they can succeed," Harris said.

2) Then she took a detour to visit the Woolworth store, now the International Civil Rights Center and Museum. She sat at the F.W Woolworth lunch counter

The store was the site of the 1960 Greensboro sit-ins, which led to the department store chain removing its policy of racial segregation in the South.

3) Vice President Harris then toured Thomas Built Buses in High Point. Thomas Built Buses is a manufacturer of electric school buses.


During her tour, she spoke with union workers and watched how bus parts were assembled. As part of her remarks while there, she said The American Jobs Plan will keep our kids healthy and create jobs by investing $20 billion in electric school buses to get us closer to 100% electric school buses across the nation.
