The Sikh Council on Religion and Education (SCORE) Chairman Rajwant Singh has welcomed Kamala Harris’ candidacy as the next USA President. Dr. Singh in a recent press release gladly welcomed the endorsement of Kamala Harris for President. He said that it is a great honor for the Sikh Community, that President Biden has endorsed her for president. According to him, the Democratic Party and the nation needs her leadership at this critical juncture.
Dr. Singh is also the founder president of EcoSikh, a Washingotn based environmental organization and a senior advisor to the National Sikh Campaign.
“We are pleased by the magnanimous step taken by President Joe Biden to step down from a very powerful position in the interest of the nation and the world. He is truly an American hero. He has shown his utmost dedication in serving this nation in the last 5 decades. His last political act has shown his courageous and self-less leadership,“ he said
President Biden recently withdrew from the Presidential race and said that it had been the greatest honor of his life to serve as President. While it had been his intention to seek reelection, he believed that it was in the best interest of the party and the country for him to stand down and to focus solely on fulfilling his duties as President for the remainder of his term.
“I have been privileged to serve this nation for over 50 years. I have given my heart and my soul, like so many others have. And I have been blessed a million times in return with the love and support of the American people. I hope you know how grateful I am to all of you,” said President Biden on X.
Dr. Singh added, “Kamala Harris’s candidacy has electrified the grassroots as well all those who are in the center of the American political scene. Now is the time to win this election and bring Kamala Harris to the White House as the President of the United States. Sikh community will join in supporting her candidacy.”
He added, “She has spoken against the hate crimes against all minorities including Sikhs and Biden Harris Administration has also condemned the killing of the 6 Sikhs by a White Supremacist in the Oak Creek, Wisconsin on the 10th anniversary of that tragedy.”
He stated, “She has shown her leadership in California as attorney general and as senator from that state and in the last four years, she has served gracefully as the VP of this great nation. We are very confident that she will quickly gather support from all quarters of the Democratic party as well among the independents. People who are tired of the discordant atmosphere from last 10 years will have a chance to change the direction of America.”
Currently a vice president under the administration of President Joe Biden, Kamala Devi Harris is an American politician and attorney.
