Family Offices Rally Behind Kamala Harris: Who’s Leading the Charge?

Time will tell whether she has the momentum to beat Trump 

In the wake of Joe Biden’s decision to bow out of the presidential race, attention has swiftly turned to Vice President Kamala Harris. As she steps into the spotlight, a significant wave of support is coming from family offices. Several influential family office leaders have publicly endorsed Harris, signaling their confidence in her ability to lead the country.

One of the most notable endorsements comes from James Pritzker, the head of the Pritzker family office. The Pritzker family, known for their vast real estate and hospitality empire, has a long history of political involvement. “Kamala Harris represents the future of America,” said Pritzker in a recent interview. “Her vision for a more inclusive and equitable society aligns with our family’s values. We are proud to support her candidacy.”

The Rockefeller family office, another powerhouse in the world of private wealth, has also thrown its support behind Harris. David Rockefeller Jr. expressed his enthusiasm, stating, “Kamala Harris has the experience, intelligence, and integrity needed to guide our nation through these challenging times. Our family has always believed in investing in leadership that can drive positive change, and we see that potential in her.”

In addition to the Pritzker and Rockefeller endorsements, Harris has garnered support from the Soros family office. Jonathan Soros, son of George Soros and CEO of JS Capital Management, highlighted Harris’s commitment to social justice and economic reform. “Kamala Harris has a proven track record of fighting for the underrepresented and marginalized,” Soros noted. “Her policies on criminal justice reform and economic equality are exactly what this country needs right now.”

The support from these family offices is more than just symbolic; it represents a significant boost to Harris’s campaign in terms of financial backing and influence. Family offices have the resources to contribute substantial donations and mobilize extensive networks of supporters.

Furthermore, Harris’s campaign has received endorsements from several smaller but equally influential family offices. For example, the Chandler family office, known for its philanthropic efforts in education and healthcare, has voiced its support. Richard Chandler commented, “Kamala Harris’s dedication to improving the lives of all Americans resonates with our mission. We believe she is the right leader to steer our country toward a brighter future.”

As the 2024 election approaches, the backing of these prominent family offices could play a crucial role in shaping the outcome. With their support, Kamala Harris is well-positioned to build a strong, well-funded campaign that can effectively reach voters across the nation. The endorsements from these family offices not only reflect their confidence in her leadership but also their commitment to the values and vision she champions.
