Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) has selected “Pioneer†for her code name for the Secret Service, CNN reports.
Harris, who reportedly came under the protection of the Secret Service after being named presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden's running mate, selected the name from a list others that had already been okayed by the agency, according to CNN, which cited a law enforcement source for its reporting.
The nickname seems particularly fitting for Harris given the historical significance of her being named Biden’s running mate last week, becoming the first Black woman and Indian American to run on a major party’s presidential ticket.
