Harris Attacks Arizona Abortion Rights: Trump Did It
What happened
Vice President Kamala Harris traveled to Arizona to rally voters on abortion rights, blaming Donald Trump for the state's abortion ban, which revived a 160-year-old law banning all abortions except when necessary to save a pregnant woman's life. Harris stated that Trump's actions led to the ban and that a second Trump term would result in "more obstacles, more suffering and less freedom." The Biden campaign is seeking to build momentum in Arizona by launching ad buys on the issue.
