Kamala Devi Harris — currently the presumptive presidential nominee after Biden has exited the race — has been a vocal advocate for LGBTQ+ rights throughout her career, consistently supporting policies that promote equality and inclusivity for the queer community, reports LGBTQ Nation.
Harris has the longest history of supporting same-sex marriage out of any Democratic candidate currently in play. She publicly supported marriage equality as far back as 2004, where she officiated gay weddings.

She worked with President Biden on enacting the Respect for Marriage Act in 2022 to require state and federal governments to recognize same-sex marriage.
