Sen. Elizabeth Warren bragged on CNN last week that Kamala Harris’ “biggest accomplishment” as vice president was being the first sitting vice president to visit an abortion facility, an act that minimized the real struggles of expecting mothers and positioned her as a saleswoman of harm and heartbreak.
While there are a number of reasons to oppose a Harris presidency, Americans should especially be concerned about her vocal push for limitless abortion up until birth.
Harris’s radical record on abortion is enough to frighten even the most pro-abortion voters, let alone vulnerable mothers who face unexpected or unwanted pregnancies.
Unlike Biden, Harris is unafraid to aggressively articulate her party’s agenda for unfettered access to abortion. She has also repeatedly refused to name any limits on abortion she would be willing to support.
She intentionally evaded questions about her stance on reasonable pro-life protections during an interview last year with Margaret Brennan on CBS’ “Face the Nation.” Instead, Harris is set on forcing all 50 states to provide access to even painful late-term abortions at every month of pregnancy, a position so extreme that it marks a complete departure from the sentiment of the majority of Americans who support reasonable abortion protections after three months gestation.
Harris’s longstanding position on abortion also puts her lack of concern for women’s often complicated and wide-ranging emotions about abortion on full display. Mothers who receive abortions frequently say that the procedure is “inconsistent with their values and preferences.” And far too many mothers — 97 percent — who visit abortion centers in times of distress are offered the one-size-fits-all answer: abortion is the only path forward, leading many to experience deep feelings of regret for years to come, a fact to which Harris repeatedly turns a blind eye.
Long before her days as vice president, Harris went so far as to target pro-life Americans and their efforts to secure safety and holistic care for women and their children in her role as attorney general of California. As AG, she stood idly by when Planned Parenthood was found to have harvested and sold aborted baby body parts in 2015. She then launched a politically driven prosecution of citizen journalists like David Daleiden at the Center for Medical Progress, instead of investigating Planned Parenthood’s cruel and dehumanizing activity.

Shortly thereafter, as a senator from California, she solidified her far-reaching abortion position through equally far-reaching legislative actions, making her one of the most anti-life politicians in the nation. Harris voted against a bill protecting the unborn from abortion after 20 weeks’ gestation, long after the point at which science shows children in the womb are capable of feeling pain.
More than once, she voted against legislation that would have provided babies who survive abortion attempts with the same medical care as any other child. Perhaps worst of all, she co-sponsored Democrats’ deceptive “Women’s Health Protection Act,” drafted with the intention of forcing abortion on demand in all 50 states and endangering healthy babies with the potential to grow into cherished sons and daughters.
Today, Harris continues to mislead American women and their families into thinking that she has their best interests in mind. She would continue to do so with a false abortion narrative as commander in chief. Americans know better than to lend an ear to disingenuous politicians who think they know better than the very citizens who experience the consequences of dangerous abortive policies and talking points, a fact with which Harris will have to contend leading up to election day.
