Vice President Kamala Harris has hired Lorraine Voles and Adam Frankel to aid in her office's communication capacity, according to a White House official.
"Their experience has been and will continue to be a valuable resource for our whole team as we map out long-term planning and fulfill the administration's ambitious policy agenda," the White House official told CNN.
