Kamala Harris is punching back at Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders for suggesting that she isn’t humble because she doesn’t have biological children.

In an interview aired Sunday on the “Call Her Daddy” podcast, the vice president suggested the Arkansas governor’s views on family were outdated — and spoke warmly about her own “modern family,” which includes her husband, Doug Emhoff, and his two children from his first marriage, Cole and Ella.

“This is not the 1950s anymore,” Harris said. “Families come in all kinds of forms.”

Harris’ remarks came in response to a question from the podcast’s host, Alex Cooper, about comments Huckabee Sanders made last month during a town hall in Flint, Michigan. The Arkansas governor said that her three kids keep her “humble,” while “Kamala Harris doesn’t have anything keeping her humble.”
