SACRAMENTO, Calif. (KABC) — Sen. Kamala Harris is set to make history as the first Black woman vice president — which means her Senate seat will soon be open.

Black Lives Matter is calling on Gov. Newsom to replace Harris with another Black woman.

The activist organization joins the state’s Legislative Black Caucus in pushing for two California congresswomen — Rep. Karen Bass and Rep. Barbara Lee — as candidates.

Black Lives Matter says it wants to ensure the organization has proper representation in the Senate and has started a petition.
