Vice President Kamala Harris recently criticized former President Donald Trump for his role in rolling back abortion protections across the country. Speaking to supporters in Tucson, Arizona, Harris issued a stark warning about the potential impact of a second Trump term if he were to be reelected in November.
Harris highlighted the efforts of Trump's allies in Congress to pass a national ban on abortion, emphasizing that such a ban would outlaw abortion in every state, including traditionally more liberal states like New York and California. She dismissed Trump's claims that he would not sign a national ban, calling for an end to what she referred to as 'gaslighting.'

The vice president also referenced a recent Arizona Supreme Court ruling that reinstated an 1864 abortion ban in the state with minimal exceptions. She described the ruling as a significant setback for women's reproductive rights in Arizona, noting that it represented a broader strategy to erode women's freedoms across the country.
Harris attributed the current challenges to the actions of former President Trump, emphasizing that his administration's efforts to undermine abortion rights were just the beginning of a larger assault on reproductive freedom. In contrast, she praised the Biden administration's commitment to protecting abortion rights and pledged to sign a law enshrining those protections into law if approved by Congress.
The vice president's remarks underscored the ongoing debate over abortion rights in the United States and the potential consequences of political decisions on women's access to reproductive healthcare. As the issue continues to be a point of contention at both the state and federal levels, advocates on both sides are closely monitoring developments that could shape the future of abortion policy in the country.
