Vice President Kamala Harris has worked on environmental justice for more than a decade .
Republicans have accused her of supporting racial preferences that would harm white Americans .
That theme could assume a larger role in an election where the GOP has struggled to find a consistent, but non-offensive, line of attack.
Environmental justice has traditionally been an under-noticed part of the green movement.
Environmental justice groups' grassroots leaders include low-income, Black , Hispanic or Indigenous activists whose communities bear the ills of smokestacks, pipelines and waste sites in their backyards.
"I have fought my entire career to address these inequities and advance environmental justice," Harris told reporters in December .
Harris arrived at the White House just five years after the lead contamination crisis in Flint , Michigan .
Biden vowed in his first State of the Union address to replace every lead drinking water pipe in the country.
Harris took a lead in working with lawmakers to get $15 billion into the bipartisan infrastructure law to fund the work.
