Vice President Kamala Harris will visit a Planned Parenthood clinic in Minnesota, the first time a president or vice president has visited an abortion facility.
As part of her “Fight for Reproductive Freedoms” tour promoting abortion, Harris will speak to staff and may interact with patients.
She has accused “extremists” of pushing to ban abortion nationally and criminalize doctors.

“Extremists across our country continue to wage a full-on attack against hard-won, hard-fought freedoms as they push their radical policies – from banning abortion in all 50 states and criminalizing doctors, to forcing women to travel out of state in order to get the care they need,” Harris said. “I will continue to fight for our fundamental freedoms while bringing together those throughout America who agree that every woman should have the right to make decisions about her own body – not the government.”
“Vice President Harris will also hold extremists accountable for proposing a national abortion ban,” a White House statement read.
President Biden also attacked Republicans wanting a national abortion ban in his State of the Union, promising to restore Roe v. Wade as law if Democrats control Congress.
They are using abortion to appeal to voters for 2024.
“Many of you in this Chamber and my predecessor are promising to pass a national ban on reproductive freedom. My God, what freedoms will you take away next?” President Biden said.
“Clearly, those bragging about overturning Roe v. Wade have no clue about the power of women in America,” Biden added. “They found out though when reproductive freedom was on the ballot and won in 2022, 2023, and they will find out again, in 2024. If Americans send me a Congress that supports the right to choose, I promise you, I will restore Roe v. Wade as the law of the land again! “
“America cannot go back. I am here tonight to show the way forward.”
While many Republican states enacted laws protecting the unborn after Roe fell, abortion activists have pushed pills by mail and corporations funding out-of-state travel for abortions.
Statistics from a pro-abortion group suggest abortions in 2023 will exceed 2020 numbers.
“In the first 10 months of 2023, there were an estimated 878,000 abortions in the formal US health care system, 94% as many abortions as were provided in 2020 (930,000),” the Guttmacher Institute wrote. “Approximately 88,000 abortions have been provided in the formal health care system per month so far in 2023, so with two months of data yet to be published, it is very likely that the total number of abortions provided in 2023 will substantially exceed 2020 numbers.”
