Vice President Kamala Harris’ message to the Democratic party is crystal clear pertaining to the 2024 presidential election: Donald Trump cannot have a second term.

As a consistent advocate of women’s rights, Harris has several times spoken out against the U.S. Supreme Court’s gutting of Roe v. Wade last year. Earlier this week, she expressed during an event in Manassas, Va. that Trump is squarely to blame for the landmark legislation being overturned:
“We need to understand the horrific reality that women face every single day. Since Roe was overturned, I have met women who have had miscarriages in toilets because they were refused care...As we face this crisis, as we are clear-eyed about the harm, let us also understand who is responsible. [Trump] intended for [Supreme Court justices] to take your freedoms. And it is a decision he brags about. Proud that women across our nation are suffering? Proud that women have been robbed of a fundamental freedom? That doctors could be thrown in prison for caring for patients? That young women today have fewer rights than their mothers and grandmothers? How dare he.”
Harris has been the center of criticism since she began her White House tenure, as some folks believed her political presence hasn’t been a strong one. However, she’s had several accomplishments as the country’s first Black woman vice president.
Alongside President Joe Biden, Harris has increased funding for HBCUs and Black businesses, eliminated a significant amount of student loan debt for borrowers and vehemently spoken out against Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ attack on Black history.
This month, she has traveled to various states in which Democrats need to galvanize voters of color, including Georgia, Nevada and South Carolina.
