Vice President Kamala Harris has landed the cover of Vogue magazine’s October digital issue, marking the latest stop in her intensified media campaign as the U.S. presidential election enters its final phase. Described by the magazine as “the candidate for our times,” Harris opens up in the profile about her policy priorities, personal life, and her perspective on current global issues.

In the feature, Harris discusses her top priorities if she becomes president. She emphasized that, from day one, her focus would be on reducing costs for Americans, stating, “One of my first calls—outside of family—will be to the team that is working with me on our plan to lower costs for the American people.” She also touched on her efforts to restore reproductive rights that were curtailed after the Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision, which overturned Roe v. Wade, acknowledging that this would be a complex challenge.

As tensions flare in the Middle East, Harris has faced criticism, particularly from Arab American communities, about her response to Israel’s recent actions in Lebanon. This issue is particularly sensitive in Michigan, a key battleground state with a significant Arab American population. Harris, whose campaign speeches have been interrupted by pro-Palestinian protesters, spoke candidly about the conflict.

“A Harris administration—to speak of myself in the third person, which makes me quite uncomfortable—would be about articulating those points and hopefully bringing some language that is reflective of the complexity and the nuance of what’s happening in the region,” Harris told Vogue. She further noted that the discussions around the Israel-Gaza conflict often simplify the issue, stating, “There’s been a language and a conversation…that suggests that this is binary. It’s not. You’re not either for this one or for that one.”

The profile also explores Harris’ upbringing, career as a prosecutor, and personal life. LGBTQ advocate and friend Matthew Rothschild commented on her stylish appearance, humorously recalling a time after a dental surgery when Harris “looked great.”

Harris’ appearance on Vogue is part of a broader media blitz, which has included interviews on 60 Minutes, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, The Howard Stern Show, the Call Her Daddy podcast, and a Univision town hall.
