Following the inauguration, Vice President Kamala Harris and Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff are heading back to California. Harris plans to take time to consider her future, including the possibility of writing books and running for governor in 2026. Emhoff will return to his legal career, splitting his time between Los Angeles and New York.
Vice President Kamala Harris and second gentleman Doug Emhoff are returning to California following the inauguration, a senior administration official confirmed on Sunday. Harris intends to take time to deliberate on her future endeavors. Sources indicate she is likely to pen books, exploring her political journey and her passion for food and cooking. Discussions among her allies have surfaced regarding a potential candidacy for the open gubernatorial seat in California in 2026.
However, Harris has not publicly disclosed her intentions regarding this possibility. Emhoff, marking his position as the first second gentleman, will depart Washington and resume his legal career, sources informed CBS News on Sunday. Prior to joining his wife in the White House, Emhoff served as a litigator and entertainment specialist at DLA Piper's Los Angeles office. He severed ties with the firm upon his wife's inauguration four years ago. Sources reveal that Emhoff will re-enter the legal field, albeit with a different firm. While the specific firm remains undisclosed, sources suggest Emhoff anticipates dividing his time between the firm's offices in New York and Los Angeles. A source privy to Harris and Emhoff's plans shared that they have been actively searching for an apartment in Manhattan. The couple maintains a residence in the Brentwood neighborhood of Los Angeles, which will serve as their primary dwelling. This neighborhood is situated relatively close to the recent wildfires that ravaged parts of Los Angeles. Since Harris's presidential bid fell short in November, Emhoff has maintained a low profile. Last week, he expressed gratitude on social media for his time alongside Harris in Washington: 'Never did I imagine that this kid who grew up in New Jersey would one day be at the White House. It has been an incredible honor to serve as our nation's first Second Gentleman,' he wrote. During his tenure in Washington, Emhoff retained connections with his legal career, serving as a 'Distinguished Visitor from Practice' at Georgetown Law School. The school stated his teaching would leverage his 'deep expertise in media and entertainment matters to teach related coursework.' This encompassed instructing a class on 'Entertainment Law Disputes' and contributing to an entertainment and media law initiative
