Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff will headline a Los Angeles fundraiser next week for his wife Kamala Harris‘ presidential campaign.
Details are TBA, but the Aug. 13 evening event is priced at a minimum of $1,000 per person, rising to $100,000 per person, including a host reception, seated dinner and photo, per the invite. Proceeds go to the Harris Victory Fund, a joint committee of the campaign, the Democratic National Committee and state parties.
In both presidential cycles, Emhoff has been a prolific fundraiser for the Biden and now the Harris campaigns. Last week, he appeared at an fundraising event in Martha’s Vineyard along with David Letterman and Jack Schlossberg, and posted on X about it.

The Los Angeles event will be the first traditional Los Angeles fundraiser for the Harris Victory Fund since the vice president entered the presidential race and became the party’s presumptive nominee. But there have been numerous other celebrity-filled Zoom events to raise low-dollar contributions, including a Comic for Kamala event this evening with figures including Ben Stiller and Jason Bateman.
