But the conversation was overshadowed by what Kamala Harris had hanging around her neck.
She wore an expensive pearl and gold chain necklace while discussing poverty and economic equality.
The necklace was made by designer Irene Neuwirth.
A quick look on the designers website shows that a single strand of the necklace the One of a Kind Gumball Link Necklace 18K Yellow Gold goes for $18,280, Breitbart reported.
However, Harris had on two strands, making it worth nearly $40,000.
