Emerge America
20th Anniversary




In San Francisco’s early 2000s, Kamala Harris’ first campaign for district attorney helped spark the movement that became Emerge. So it was only fitting and an honor to celebrate Emerge's 20th anniversary with Vice President Harris delivering their event keynote. In her first public address since her run for the presidency, Harris spoke of the importance of the 20-year history of the nation’s largest network of women elected officials and candidates, especially in today’s political landscape. The fundraising gala was a star-studded event, featuring special guests ranging from Emerge alums Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger to Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs.
