VP Kamala Harris: "Don't let your spirit be defeated. That's the one thing we can we can hold onto and keep intact is our spirit around knowing what we stand for and therefore knowing what to fight for."

VP Kamala Harris: "There are these moments, and you all are showing that we have not given up on our country. We are not willing to bend and compromise what we know to be the important values that we as a country stand for, right? And that's what you all were doing."

VP Kamala Harris:"I know you all feel alone right now in many ways but know that you have so much support and you are creating such inspiration on behalf of you may never meet. I just want you to know I'm thinking about you, we are thinking about you, and you've got our support."

As a former vice president, Harris was guaranteed protection for six months after leaving office but at the end of his term President Joe Biden signed a directive that extended her service protection until next year, according to two sources familiar.
