They are expected to “hold Trump directly accountable for the devastating impacts of overturning Roe v Wade, including threatening access to IVF,” reported CNN.
What to expect from ‘Reproductive Freedom Bus Tour' in Florida?
Minnesota Senator Amy Klobuchar, Harris-Walz campaign manager Julie Chavez-Rodriguez, Florida Representative Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, Ana Navarro, and Anya Cook will all be part of the tour.
"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," Harris-Walz campaign manager Julie Chavez Rodriguez wrote in a statement.
Amy Klobuchar attacks Donald Trump on Florida referendum
Earlier, Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren said on the upcoming Florida abortion referendum, “American women are not stupid."
She also slammed the former president saying, "It was Donald Trump who opened the door for any extremist judge or extremist state legislature to ban IVF without legal protection for abortion and IVF."
Meanwhile, Klobuchar told the outlet that it's quite evident that Trump is in favor of an “extreme abortion ban” in Florida, referring to his ever-changing stance over the ballot referendum.
“I’m a former prosecutor like Kamala Harris, and I view it pretty simply. Exhibit A, he said he was going to overturn Roe v. Wade. Exhibit B, he put the justices on the court that did it. And Exhibit C, he said he is proudly the person responsible for overturning Roe v Wade,” she said.
Speaking about the September 10 debate between Harris and Trump, the Senator from Minnesota added, “You’re going to see clearly two different people on the split screen. One guy overturned Roe v Wade, and then you have Kamala Harris, who protected these rights.”
The entire bus tour is expected to make 50 stops across the country, both in red and blue states.
