Vice President Kamala Harris paid her respects to the late Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas) on Aug. 1, delivering a eulogy honoring the congresswoman’s decades of service to the United States at a church in Houston.
Jackson Lee, 74, died on July 19, just more than a month after being diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. She was one of the most prominent black congressional leaders since she began representing Texas’s 18th district in 1995.
