Vice President Kamala Harris took an aggressive stance on school security during her time as San Francisco District Attorney.

In a 2010 speech to the Commonwealth Club of California, Harris backed adding more security measures to protect students in city schools.

She said upping the number of police officers in school and setting up metal detectors were two ideas she’d support.
