Harris was last in Michigan in October 2022 to support Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer and her reelection campaign. At the time, Harris highlighted the CHIPS and Science Act and made stops in Detroit and Southfield.

Prior to that, she visited Michigan in July 2021 to speak about voting rights and vaccination at the TCF Center, now named Huntington Place, in Detroit.
