Her history with LGBTQ+ activism started in 2003 after she was elected district attorney in San Francisco. The following year, after same-sex marriage was declared legal in the city, Harris was involved in conducting marriages for same-sex couples, which she called 'one of the most joyful' moments of her career.
After becoming state attorney general, Harris worked to promote LGBTQ+ rights and marriage equality throughout the Golden State. Alongside governor Jerry Brown, she also opposed Proposition 8, which revoked marriage equality in in 2008.
