The presidential candidate has repeatedly claimed the alleged work experience in an attempt to connect with low-wage workers.
Claim: In the 1980s, U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris worked at McDonald's while she got her undergraduate degree.
Rating: Research In Progress
Harris has made this claim repeatedly over the years, and multiple reputable news outlets have reported on the story. But, aside from Harris' testimony itself, there is no evidence (such as a photo, employment record, or confirmation from a friend or family member) to independently verify the claim. Though we've seen no reason to doubt its veracity, we've reached out to Harris' campaign and McDonald's for evidence to corroborate her claim and we'll update this report when we learn more.
Aside from the above-mentioned news reports, there was no tangible evidence of Harris working at McDonald's as a college student. We reached out to Harris' campaign, as well as McDonald's headquarters, seeking such proof — which could include photos or videos of her working at the restaurant, employment records or physical items such as a uniform or name tag. We also looked for public interviews by friends or family members of Harris' to confirm the story, with no luck.

WTF ever
Shes dumb and her policies are oh so Kommieula Uhnfare S.
She probably worked on Ronald.
You could assume it was somewhere in the DC area roughly near Howard University. It should be fairly easy to actually pinpoint, if she actually worked Mickey D’s.
However, since this is a Democrat, and they are never called on their lies, I’m guessing she is lying through her teeth.
“Though we’ve seen no reason to doubt its veracity...”
You should have NO opinion about its veracity, “FACT Checker”.
There’s something going around on FB about her being fired for stealing. I reposted it, and haven’t been savaged by “fact-checkers,” so far as I know.
I don’t believe she’s ever been qualified to work at McDonald’s
Maybe Gary MacDonald was a big “client” of hers back in the day…
Rush taught me how to translate lib-speak..
some people choose not to participate in the social security program. such people are not required to contribute to SS.
“I worked at the Texaco gas station on the corner of Orient and Rt. 17.”
vs
“I worked at a gas station.”
She is lying by.not being specific.
If Kamala Harris worked at a McDonalds, she should be proud and give that store a shout out for the business!
So let’s see her Social Security statement showing that period of time.
They still have to file paper.
I was a manager at a Radio Shack in the late 80’s.
Guess I can say I was a Regional Manager.
Who can deny this, no one, that’s who.
And co-workers from that time would be all over the news saying “I worked with her”. Where are they?
Fox covered this on Jesse Waters show tonight. Could be big!
Correct
She’s had one job her entire life—being a harlot.
I worked fast food 30 years ago, and I couldn’t tell you the names of anyone I worked with.
Fox News asked her campaign which McDonalds she worked at and they haven’t gotten back to them.
I worked at Burger King in 1977. I would be hard pressed to prove it. I guess I could track down some co workers. But the location doesn’t exist any more.
It was a lot of fun. But I guess it will always just be a memory.
No, really
