Harris bus tour focused on reproductive rights to start in Palm Beach
Vice President Harris’s campaign is launching a bus tour in Palm Beach, Fla., with its surrogates to promote access to reproductive rights.
The “Fighting for Reproductive Freedom” bus tour is set to start on Tuesday in former President Trump’s hometown. Surrogates from second gentleman Doug Emhoff, the first lady of Minnesota Gwen Walz, Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.), and Harris campaign manager Julie Chavez Rodriguez, among others, will be on the tour.
The tour will make at least 50 stops in red, blue and battleground states in the next couple of months, the campaign announced. Surrogates will focus on talking to voters about Harris and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s (D) plans to restore the protections of Roe v. Wade, which was overturned by the Supreme Court in 2022.
The tour will also focus on holding former President Trump “directly accountable for the devastating impacts of overturning Roe v. Wade, including threatening access to IVF,” according to the campaign, and outline the difference between Trump’s stance on abortion and Harris’s stance.
Reproductive rights advocates Amanda Zurawski, Hadley Duvall, and Kaitlyn Joshua will also join the bus tour. The three women spoke at the Democratic National Convention last week.
“Our campaign is hitting the road to meet voters in their communities, underscore the stakes of this election for reproductive freedom, and present them with the Harris-Walz ticket’s vision to move our country forward, which stands in stark contrast to Donald Trump’s plans to drag us back. As we crisscross the country, we’ll be driving that contrast home to red and blue voters and independents,” Harris campaign manager Julie Chavez Rodriguez said in a statement.
