Kamala Harris is the most active Vice President in the United States Senate in history.
Remember, there’s 100 members of the Senate. Whenever there’s a 50-50 tie after a vote, one of the few jobs a Vice President actually has is to BREAK that tie, and of the 301 tie-breaking votes ever cast by vice presidents in the Senate, Harris has cast 33 of them. Yep, she’s broke more ties in the Senate than any other Vice President in American history.
While most of these votes were to approve Joe Biden’s judicial nominees, two notable laws that Harris broke ties for to get them passed were the American Rescue Plan and the Inflation Reduction Act, the biggest law Congress has ever passed to invest in fighting climate change and a big reason why prescription drug prices are going down for tens of millions of Americans.
Hey! I guess being a Vice President isn’t such a useless job after all.
