California Democratic Rep. Barbara Lee was said to be among those considered to replace Harris. “So representation, it really does matter, because the lens by which you look at policies are lenses that others don’t have,” Lee told The 19th in November.https://bit.ly/3awuHc5
Also on the shortlist was California Democratic Rep. Karen Bass, chair of the Congressional Black Caucus. In November, Bass told The 19th there‘s a need to diversify the Senate. “I think that it will leave a vacuum to not have a Black woman there.”https://bit.ly/3hbwTqz
Padilla, the son of Mexican immigrants who worked as a cook and a house cleaner, was sworn in as California’s first Latinx secretary of state in 2015. The Congressional Hispanic Caucus backed Padilla as the pick for the Senate role.

Maybe if the Dems hadn’t lost ground in the house it would’ve happened......
Good Vote out Dianne Feldstein in the next election.
So we work now on getting a black woman elected in 2022. I’d bet Stacey Abrams could name a few. She ask Rev Warnock to run.
Barbara Lee and Karen Bass are both absolutely right, and I hope both of them become senators. Soon. They'll be fantastic.
There never was a black woman there. https://www.senate.gov/senators/asian-american-senators.htm …
