Vice President Kamala Harris says voters are ready for "a new way forward" Harris and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz give first major television interview of their presidential campaign.

The interview gives Harris a chance to quell criticism that she has eschewed uncontrolled environments.

It also gives her a fresh platform to define her campaign and test her political mettle ahead of an upcoming debate with Donald Trump .

The campaign wants the events to motivate voters in GOP -leaning areas who don’t traditionally see the candidates, and hopes that the engagements drive viral moments that cut through crowded media coverage to reach voters across the country.

Harris has another campaign blitz on Labor Day with Biden in Detroit and Pittsburgh with the election approaching.
