Kamala Harris: Trump's Agenda Would Take America Back to the 1800s on Abortion

Vice President Kamala Harris accused former President Donald Trump of wanting to take America back to the 1800s regarding abortion rights.
Her remarks came after Arizona's supreme court upheld a ban on nearly all terminations, making it the latest state to restrict the procedure.

Democrats criticized Trump for promoting unpopular restrictions on women's rights ahead of the November presidential election.

Harris warned that a second Trump term would result in more bans, more suffering, and less freedom for women.

Vice President Kamala Harris criticized a recent Supreme Court ruling in Arizona that severely limits abortion rights, bringing the state's laws back to the 1800s.

The ruling, which has no exceptions for rape or incest, came after the US Supreme Court overturned Roe v Wade in 2022, ending the federal guarantee of abortion rights.

Harris emphasized that it is 2024 and the country is not going back to the 1800s, and that such restrictions are not acceptable.

The text discusses the controversy surrounding state-level bans on abortion, which are supported by the evangelical wing of the Republican Party and some of their elected representatives.

However, a majority of the electorate disapproves of these bans and has voted to protect abortion rights in conservative states like Kansas.

Democratic nominee Joe Biden is using this issue to criticize President Trump during his campaign.

Harris's speech was part of this Democratic strategy.
