[]
Date: 2024-08
WASHINGTON, D.C. — Today, Vice President Kamala Harris announced Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate for her 2024 presidential bid. Harris and Walz have both shown a commitment to sexual and reproductive health care and rights. Alexis McGill Johnson, president and CEO of Planned Parenthood Action Fund, released the following statement:
“By choosing Gov. Walz as her running mate, Vice President Harris has put forward the most pro-reproductive freedom ticket in history. Gov. Walz is a longtime champion of sexual and reproductive health care and has been a fierce abortion rights champion as governor, helping to protect abortion rights in Minnesota.
“The stakes of this election could not be higher, the contrast between the two tickets could not be clearer, and the state of sexual and reproductive health care in this country could not be more dire. Kamala Harris and Tim Walz are the only people we can trust to ensure that everyone has the freedom to make decisions about their own bodies. Planned Parenthood Action Fund is committed to doing all we can to make sure these reproductive rights champions are elected in November.”
