Former Center for American Progress Fellow to Head Hillary Clinton’s Senior Policy Advisor Team [View all]
from India West:
Maya Harris, a former senior fellow at the Center for American Progress, is one three senior policy advisors named by Hillary Clinton to lead the development of an agenda for her presidential campaign, setting the stage for a series of policy rollouts that campaign officials hope to begin next month after her early phase of road trips to meet voters.
According to a report in Politico, Harris, an Indian American, will head the team that includes Ann O’Leary, a former legislative director to Clinton when she was in the Senate; and Jake Sullivan, a top aide to Clinton while she was secretary of state and a former national security adviser to Vice President Joe Biden.
According to the report, Harris has a background in human rights, having served as vice president of Democracy, Rights and Justice at the Ford Foundation, where she led a team that promoted effective governance, democracy and human rights around the world.
"I will be rolling out very specific policies over the weeks and months ahead that I think are going to be at the core of not only a successful campaign, but much more importantly, getting our country to work again," Clinton told reporters.
She is expected to roll out her full policy platform in May or June, after a series of meetings like those of April 14 that will be held in early primary states.
