(Reuters) - Douglas Emhoff, the husband of U.S. Vice President-Elect Kamala Harris, will leave his job at one of the country's largest law firms by January to focus on supporting the incoming Biden administration, a campaign representative said on Tuesday.

Emhoff took a leave of absence from the law firm, DLA Piper, in August, after now President-elect Joe Biden, a Democrat, named Harris as his running mate. Biden, who faced off against President Donald Trump, on Nov. 3, captured the presidency on Saturday.
