In order to give the new vice president time to get acquainted with their new residence, Vice President Kamala Harris did not send out an invitation to the incoming Vice President JD Vance and his family. According to several Republican and Democratic sources cited by CBS News, Kamala Harris did not extend an official invitation to JD Vance for a tour or a sit-down. Usha Vance, JD Vance’s wife, contacted the staff in November to ask for information, including what they would need to childproof the Naval Observatory apartment they would be moving into on January 20. All three of their children, Miravel, Vivek, and Ewan, are younger than eight years old. According to the article, a Harris political appointee first rejected the inquiries. However, there was correspondence between the Navy aides in charge of the house and the Vance team.
According to a person familiar with the conversation, Navy personnel gave the Vances a tour of the house before to Christmas in order to go over the house’s layout, the logistics and practicality of the move-in, and to help them with any issues they might have had. According to the story, Usha Vance had a 40-minute conversation with Emhoff last week, and Harris sources verified that plans are in place to house the Vance kids.
‘Kamala Harris was never invited beforehand either’
According to the source, Kamala Harris herself was not given the chance to tour the house in advance. However, this assertion has been disputed because Mike Pence’s advisers claimed that Harrus and Emhoff were discreetly granted permission to come during Trump‘s denial that he lost the election. Donald Trump was not informed of the invitation, which was sent in secret. There was no official meeting between Pence and Harris.
Harris’ team stated that they were concentrating on the California wildfires after canceling a vacation abroad. The Pences were entertained by then-Vice President Biden and Jill in 2016. The Bidens and Donald Trump met formally this time as well, but without Melania.
Due to repairs, Kamala Harris did not move into the Naval Observatory apartment until April 2021.
