Vice President Kamala Harris delivered a heartfelt eulogy for the late Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee in Houston, describing her as a 'force of nature' and 'fierce champion of justice' who made significant contributions to social justice and women's rights. During her speech, Harris accidentally referred to herself as 'president,' which elicited laughter and applause from the audience. She reflected on their friendship and Jackson Lee's legislative achievements, including the recognition of Juneteenth as a federal holiday. The funeral was attended by over 50 members of Congress, with former President Bill Clinton and other Democratic leaders praising Jackson Lee's commitment to equality and democracy. Harris emphasized the need to honor Jackson Lee's legacy by continuing her fight for justice. Jackson Lee passed away on July 19 after battling pancreatic cancer at the age of 74.
