Adam Schiff: California’s Next Attorney General?
The California attorney general position is a lofty springboard office likely to be vacated by President Joe Biden’s nominee to lead the Department of Health and Human Services, Xavier Becerra. Would Schiff go for it?
Perhaps no politician in America rode the Trump train in his own way as effectively Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), now jockeying to be the attorney general of California.
The California attorney general position is a lofty springboard office likely to be vacated by President Joe Biden’s nominee to lead the Department of Health and Human Services, Xavier Becerra. Until her 2016 Senate victory, the current Vice President Kamala Harris was the California attorney general. Even Jerry Brown as part of a political comeback was attorney general before becoming governor again in 2010. With potentially big cases, the job offers the chance for national stardom.
