Two more top officials have left Vice President Kamala Harris’ team, adding their names to a growing list of departures from the White House.
Domestic Policy Adviser Rohini Kosoglu announced she would step down in August, while Politico reported that Director of Speechwriting Meghan Groob allegedly plans to leave after working for just four months in the position.
Kosoglu, who has been working for Harris for six years, said she wanted to resign in order to spend more time with her family. In response, the VP called the aide a "brilliant and trusted leader who has been at my side for years from the US Senate to the campaign trail to the White House."
"She has brought vision, strategic judgment, and a depth of experience as our administration has addressed some of the most urgent challenges facing our nation," Harris said. "She is an exceptional public servant and I am enormously grateful for her service. Rohini will remain a valued advisor and friend."
Over the past two years, multiple high-ranking staffers have left the VP's office, with her team experiencing high staff turnover. Reports circulating in the press suggest that the exodus may be linked to Harris' plummeting ratings and shaky position amid top Democrats.
