Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA), one of the Senate’s leading progressives and a name often mentioned as a prospective 2020 presidential candidate, officially has a book coming out next year. Penguin Press announced on Tuesday that it will publish her book The Truths We Hold: An American Journey on January 19, just months after this year’s midterm elections. In March, The Daily Beast reported that the senator had been shopping around a potential book entitled Speaking Truth: Hard Facts and Hope for America’s Future. This will be her second book, following 2009's Smart on Crime, published before Harris successfully ran for California attorney general.
