Mr. Biden has already announced a slew of his picks for top positions in his administration, with 40 days to go until he’s sworn into office.
On Thursday, Mr. Biden and Harris were named Time Magazine’s Person of the Year for 2020, a recognition of “the individual or group of people who affected the news or our lives the most, for better or worse.”
“Honored to be named @TIME‘s Person of the Year with President-elect @JoeBiden,” Harris tweeted Friday morning. “We’re at a moment where we’re being confronted by multiple crises that have converged. We have a lot we need to handle in the days ahead but I know together we can get it done.”
