CHARLOTTE, N.C. (WNCN) – Vice President Kamala Harris will be back in North Carolina later this week where she will discuss the $1 trillion-plus bipartisan infrastructure law.

Harris will travel to Charlotte on Thursday where her office said she will talk about how the law will upgrade the U.S.’s infrastructure and create good-paying union jobs in North Carolina.

Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg and Congresswoman Alma Adams will accompany Harris in Charlotte.

The vice president’s visit comes after President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden celebrated Thanksgiving with soldiers on Fort Bragg last week.
