Vincent Evans, an aide to Vice President Kamala Harris, is moving on to a new role as the executive director for the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC).  

The Congressional Black Caucus is the body of Black congressional leaders who are “committed to suing the full Constitutional power, statutory authority and financial resources of the federal government to ensure that African Americans and other marginalized communities in the United States have the opportunity to achieve the American Dream.”

“I am deeply honored to be named the executive director of the Congressional Black Caucus,” Evans said in a statement. “I started my career in Washington working for a member of the CBC, so I know first hand the tremendous leadership and impact this Caucus has in Congress and across the country. As we write the next chapter of the CBC story, I am excited for the opportunity to lend my experience and passion for supporting the collective vision of this storied Caucus.”
