Vice President Harris on Monday torched Republicans over their abortion views and directly tied former President Trump her and President Bidens likely 2024 opponent to the end of Roe v. Wade. Harris kicked off a Fight for Reproductive Freedoms tour that coincided with the 51st anniversary of Roe v. Wade, where she excoriated Republicans who have pushed to restrict abortion access and placed the blame at the feet of Trump, the likely GOP presidential nominee.
The former president hand-picked three Supreme Court justices because he intended for them to overturn Roe. He intended for them to take your freedoms, and it is a decision he brags about, Harris said in Wisconsin, citing Trumps comments at a Fox News town hall earlier this month in which he said he was proud to have ended Roe v. Wade, the landmark Supreme Court decision that allowed abortion on the federal level.
Proud that women across our nation are suffering? Proud that women have been robbed of a fundamental freedom? Proud that doctors could be thrown in prison for caring for their patients? That young women today have fewer rights than their mothers and grandmothers? How dare he, Harris said.
Harris traveled to Wisconsin, a key battleground state, as the Biden campaign seeks to energize voters on abortion rights. The campaign released an ad on Sunday highlighting the story of an OB-GYN who had to leave Texas for an abortion, and Biden and Harris are set to hold a rally in Virginia on Tuesday focused on abortion.
