THE SBRBN SCOOP
A CANDID CONVERSATION WITH LAUREN HALSEY

From monumental architecture to street-level storytelling, Lauren shares the vision, the process, and the people behind it all.
IN THE NEWS

Kamala Harris endorses L.A. Mayor Karen Bass for re-election
Former Vice President Kamala Harris has officially thrown her support behind Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass in her 2026 re-election bid, marking one of the most significant political endorsements in the race so far. The backing from Harris — who remains one of the most recognizable Democratic figures in the country and holds deep roots in California politics — signals a strong show of confidence in Bass's leadership at a critical moment for the city.
Mayor Bass is running for re-election amid an intense spotlight on her administration's handling of the January 2025 wildfires, which devastated large portions of the LA region and drew both national attention and sharp criticism. Harris's endorsement could provide a meaningful boost heading into the race, helping to shore up Bass's standing among Democratic voters who may have questions about her crisis response — while also reinforcing the narrative that Bass has the backing of the party's most prominent voices.
