Vice President Kamala Harris is heading to Atlanta tomorrow, marking her 10th visit to Georgia since taking office. Harris' trip is scheduled for Tuesday, Jan. 9, and she'll be joining a roundtable discussion with community leaders at The Gathering Spot, focusing on the ongoing battle for voting rights among other key issues, according to FOX 5 Atlanta.

Harris, who last month made headlines by cheering on her alma mater, Howard University, at the Celebration Bowl, will be at the heart of the Peach State's capital for a conversation that has yet to be given an official start time. Located on Northyards Boulevard NW, The Gathering Spot is a known hub for influential talks and gatherings in the state's bubbling political scene. The focus on civil liberties and fundamental freedoms remains a central theme as the White House did not release a time for the chat, and details about the meeting remain scant, as reported by FOX 5 Atlanta.
